You are finished with exams, or nearly finished. You can nearly feel the freedom that comes with summer: no homework, swimming and picnics, and, perhaps some summer reading.
If the latter is a priority, the library has selected a few books to fill the warm summer days. You can find them on display in the library lobby.
From all of us at the library, have a relaxing, adventurous, and fun summer!

Comments: Hoping this will inspire you to take a walk in the woods and see the beautiful patterns in nature that Andy Goldsworthy highlights in his work. Get creative and make you own piece of art out in the great outdoors.
