On Your Mark, Get Set...READ!
Are you ready for some science?  The annual Mad Science performance will be held Wednesday, June 22 at 10 a.m.  The kids’ summer reading program also includes a story time for ages birth – 12 on Tuesday at 10 a.m., a program for ages 8 – 18 on Thursday mornings at 10:00 a.m. (this week it’s Ninja Secrets and next week it’s Record Breaking Paper Airplanes), and a Friday afternoon movie for all ages at 2:00 p.m.  Don’t forget to get your tally sheets in before the library closes on Saturdays to get your pages counted by the next program!
EXERCISE YOUR MIND
Summer Reading is not just for kids.  The adult program is available to anyone that wishes to win prizes for reading.  Simply register and then enter each book you complete.  Any format will do.  We draw for prizes on Monday mornings.

BOOK SALE
Are you in the middle of spring cleaning?  Are you cleaning out the house of a loved one?  Are you       de-stashing your collection of cookbooks?  We can help!!!  Each August, the SCL has a book sale of materials that have been removed from our shelves, and items that have been donated to us to sell.  Proceeds from this book sale go directly toward purchasing new items for the collection.  If you would like to contribute to our book sale, now is the time to bring in materials that you would like us to help find new homes.  Materials need to be in usable shape.  Dust is okay, mold not so much.  Cutoff for donations is the last week of July, as we want to have everything on hand when we begin the sale on August 1.

A MILLION STEPS
Our secondary summer program for all ages is called A Million Steps.  The rules are simple.  Pledge the number of steps/miles you wish to walk per week.  Complete your weekly goal and be entered in the weekly drawing.  Chart your progress on the “walking track” at the library.  Everyone that completes 1,000,000 steps (or 50 miles) before August 31 will be entered into a drawing for a Fitbit HR.

LIBRARY FEES
Did you know that library fees for overdues, faxes, copies, and meeting room rental are essential for the purchase of new library materials?  Money from fees collected in 2015 paid for more than 1/3 of ALL materials purchased for the SCL collection last year.  This includes books, audios, videos, magazines, newspapers, and databases. 
Wireless Internet
Internet service at the Stevens County Library is paid for in part by the federal universal services Schools and Library Program, commonly known as the E-rate Program, for use on library property.
