We hope you will stop in and visit with us here at the Leesburg Library during the month of September.

Our Knit Together group continues to meet on Thursdays from 5:30-7 PM. New knitters are always welcome.

Our teen book group, SPARX, will meet on Thursday, September 13 at 5:30 p.m. All Leesburg area teens grade 7 and up are invited to participate.

This is our first meeting of the school year so please join us and help us plan our meetings and choose our “Book of the Month.” Pizza and pop will be served.

Dawna Jo Kiesling from the Highland County Extension Office will join us on Thursday, September 13 from 10-12 to share healthy nutrition tips with patrons.

Our story times resume on Thursday, September 13 and continue every Thursday morning. Wee Ones (age 6-36 months) meet at 10 a.m. for a time of songs, rhymes, and stories. Tater Tots (age 3-5 years) meet at 10:30 a.m. for songs, finger plays, flannel board activities, stories and crafts.

Stop by our front desk to pick up a booklet that includes this year’s dates, themes and more information.

Topics this month include Welcome to the Library, Curious George and Bee Sweet with Honey.

Please join us for a full year of story time fun!

Our adult book group, RRRR, will also be meeting on Thursday, September 20 at 1:30 p.m.

We will also be offering Computer Classes on Thursday evenings during the month of October. Class size is limited, so please register now either in person or via phone to reserve your spot.

We are always looking for patrons who would like to share their collections with us in our display case. If you have such a collection, please speak with one of the staff on your next visit.

And, let your children and grandchildren know that Merry Money will return for another Christmas season. Signups will start on October 1. See you soon!
