Danville-Center Township Public Library, Vol. 99: 11/2/23
Words with Miss Renee
It was so wonderful to see our patrons dressed up at this year's Scares on the Square! Whether you visited the front of the library or trunk or treated, thanks for making us a part of your Halloween.
This is my last newsletter, #99. Maddie, Andy, and Aubrey will be keeping you all very happy with their book recommendations, hold-pulling, and creative programs. I can't wait to see you in town and hear about all the wonderful things your kids are doing as they make their way through childhood. Thank you so much for making me a better librarian, but more importantly, human.
Yours in literacy and in life,
Renee Bowman
