MAPL Update - 27 June 2010

• Summer hours begin next week. The Matawan Aberdeen Public Library (MAPL) will operate on Saturdays from 9 am to 12:30 pm beginning 3 July. Other hours remain the same.
• The MAPL Summer Reading Program has begun. If you've not registered yet, do so. You'll get a free tote bag and can enter to win weekly prizes whenever you return a book.
• The library will be closed for the Fourth of July holiday (Sunday) and on 5 July (Monday).
• Friends of MAPL have launched a membership drive. If you didn't receive an application form in your new tote, you can pick one up at the checkout desk. Be sure to fill it out and turn it in.
• Friends of MAPL are hosting the ongoing book sale across from the checkout desk. Hardcover books are only a dollar; paperbacks and children's books are only 50 cents. There are even some audio books and videos for sale. A flood of used books and recordings are arriving daily, so save a bundle during these difficult times by checking the Friends of MAPL Sale first for your media needs. (Book donations are currently solicited. Drop them off in front of the reference desk.)
