It's a New Year and a New Game

As you can see, it's been a month since the last entry. In fact, a little more than a month. Vacations have come and gone, and we're in a new year. So, it's time for a new game.
In the next few days several of us will finalize our programs and events for our upcoming year. We'll have our plans ready for July 2010 to July 2011. And you'll be amazed at what we're already thinking about.
Several events we'll have are the ones we like to keep because they are community-dedicated, such as the June children's programs and the November Veterans' Coffee. But there will be other events that will be new to our
library.
For that reason, you need to keep checking the Bookworm Blog to see what we have lined up for you, our constant readers and our patrons, as well as the general community. It's those in the general community we'd like to have as our patrons, those in the community who don't realize what their public library has to offer, and those in the community we'd like to join us by obtaining a library card and using it frequently.
We're still in an economic pit (although many people say times are improving) and we all still need to watch our pennies. The Moultrie-Colquitt County Library and the Ellen Payne Odom Genealogical Library are here to
help.
With just the show of a public library card you can obtain books to read and books to listen to, as well as select a favorite movie on DVD or VHS. By using the library you can purchase copies of your important papers, pick up free magazines, enjoy the children's programs, read the newspapers, and use one of the 20 Dell computers.
In the Odom Library you can use the online library-version of Ancestry.com to help with your genealogy questions, review interesting family Clan books and histories of specific individuals, and receive dedicated help from the staff in the genealogy library.
During the upcoming year, events will be planned with your interests in mind, all the way from A to Z.
So, here we go! into our new year and new game. We're looking forward to it! We hope you will be too.
