Greetings from Plumb Library and welcome to BookRemarks, our new monthly feature focusing on all things library related.
Let’s be honest, March is a hard month. It’s long. There are no holidays. The weather is still unsettled, and everyone is feeling a bit twitchy. And then you hear it, “I’m bored.” Plumb Library to the rescue with lots of ways to keep kids and adults occupied. Let’s start with the obvious, we have books for everyone. Board books, picture books, beginning readers through teens, adults, large print, fiction and nonfiction. There are also magazines, graphic novels and audiobooks and yes, listening is reading too. Try out Libby or Hoopla for a large selection of downloadable e-books and e-audio for free with your library card. Are you in need of a whole weekend’s worth of entertainment? We have DVD Binge Boxes, 5-6 DVDs packaged as a theme, including Award Winners, Cartoon Classics and Superheroes. As we move into spring, try out a MOBY backpack to explore the outdoors as a family or borrow our telescope for a nighttime adventure. Did you know the Library loans out a ukulele? The Library also offers 24/7 access to a number of databases, including CreativeBug for crafts, Universal Class for skills, TumbleBooks for little people, NoveList to find your next favorite book and Freegal for music.
As always, your Library Staff, Kristen, Jen, Lisa and Bridget are here to help you find what you need. Feel free to call 508-763-8600 or email us info@plumblibrary.com)with any questions. Better yet, come by and say hello.
