Children's Dept.

Good morning,
I hope everyone had a great Christmas, I know my family and I did, however I ate to much.
Just a reminder that we will be closing at 12:00 p.m. Monday, December 31st and will not reopen until Wednesday, January 2, 2008.
It is hard to believe that 2007 is almost over and 2008 is around the corner. We are plan exciting programs for the Children's Department. Keep watching Story Land's blog for details as the events get closer.
Ms. Linda

RIF

The Perry Carnegie Library has been recognized by the Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) program as the longest-running program in the state of Oklahoma. Our RIF program was started in 1977 by Mrs. Emma Dearborn, well-known teacher and library board member.

Santa Claus is Coming

Children of all ages! Santa Claus is coming to the Perry Carnegie Library for storytime on December 18th & 19th, at 10:00 a.m. He will read a Christmas story and visit with the kids.
Everyone is invited to attend either day.

Storytime 2008

Good morning everyone,

December 18th & 19th is our last week of storytime for the year. Storytime will start again on January 8th. The spring sign-up sheets are at my desk. We look forward to seeing everyone at story time in January.
