July/August 2023 Newsletter

Dear Derby Neck Library Patrons,

Keep an eye out for some new faces--we've added Adult Services Assistant Kate Hellman and Youth Services Assistant Victor Vega to our staff! They are both excited to join our team and do what they can to serve our community. Victor habla español--pregunte por él si necesita ayuda en español. Please be sure to say hello when you see them around!

Our Summer Reading 2023 program "Find Your Voice" is well underway! Adults can take part by completing the fun activities outlined on our BINGO sheet--make sure you fill out the Summer Reading Survey coming out in August to get the center square! Youth can fill out a daily calendar and log events in READsquared to earn points. Our program runs until August 17th, so you still have plenty of time to get in on all the action!

We've been getting a lot of questions about our museum and zoo passes--you can now look up what our passes are by visiting our Museum and Attraction Passes page here. Passes are first-come first-served, so we recommend calling ahead to ensure a particular pass is available.

All of our great recurring programs for adults and youth will continue throughout the Summer. You can read about all of them in the newsletter and on our Website. Links are below. We hope to see you all soon. Be safe, be healthy, and be well!

Warmly,
Krissy Warrenger
Head Librarian
