The Joy Group Visits Doerun Library

Holly told me an interesting thing yesterday. She said the Mt. Sinai Baptist Church from Doerun brought their "Joy Group" to visit the library. Approximately 15 senior citizens (I prefer to call them "elders" of our tribe) got library cards and checked out books. Holly said most of them hadn't been to the library before. What a great outing! Just goes to prove, you're never too young or too old to get a library card. In case you didn't know, the Doerun Municipal Library is a branch of the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library System. It's located at 185 North Freeman Street in Doerun and open from 2 PM to 6 PM on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. It has an ever-expanding collection of fiction, non-fiction, children's books and periodicals. And, as part of the PINES library system, patrons have access to books from any PINES library in the state. Also, it has three computers with Internet access available for use by patrons with library cards. The computers have Microsoft Office applications including Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint. Printouts are 10 cents per page. If you have a question and you think the library might hold the answer, call 229-782-5507 and talk to Holly, Johnnie or LaDonna. They'd love to help you.
