Seekonk Public Library News 5.6 Thursday June 1, 2006 A monthly newsletter about the Seekonk Public Library http://www.seekonkpl.org news@seekonkpl.org _________________________________________________________________ Greetings from the Director, Sharon St. Hilaire: The shelving is here!!! The shelving is here!!!! I write this with the background music of drills. New shelving is being installed in the fiction area. The art wall is no more, and 27" of shelving is being installed to create a new YA area. Last but not least, a new large print area is being created near the Customer Services desk. This new section is double the size of the other area because large print is being used by more and more customers. All of this is being done with grant money. We hope you forgive our appearance for a few weeks as we shift the materials to their new areas. __________________________________________________________________ BOOK SORTER NEEDED If you love books and have 2 -3 hours once a week, contact Sharon St. Hilaire (508-336-8230 ext 101). The Friends need someone who can help sort book donations for their ongoing book sale. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ New DVD Titles -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Everything is Illuminated By: Wood, Elijah ISBN: 1419802356 Edition: Pub.Date: 3/21/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Munich By: Spielberg, Steven; Bana, Eric; Craig, Daniel; Rush, Geoffrey ISBN: 6310137948 Edition: Pub.Date: 5/9/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Casanova By: Ledger, Heath ISBN: 6310017594 Edition: Pub.Date: 4/25/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Layer Cake By: Vaughn, Matthew; Vaughn, Matthew; Vaughn, Matthew; Craig, Daniel; Craig, Daniel; ISBN: 1404994351 Edition: Pub.Date: 1/31/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nanny McPhee By: Thompson, Emma ISBN: 6310137921 Edition: Pub.Date: 5/9/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cafe Au Lait By: Kassovitz, Mathieu ISBN: 1417200510 Edition: Pub.Date: 5/10/2005 Binding: Digital Video Disk Supplier: Koch Vision Entertainment Dewey: PO Line Note: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jesus Of Montreal By: Arcand, Denys; Bluteau, Lothaire ISBN: 1417200723 Edition: Pub.Date: 11/9/2004 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Boudu Saved from Drowning By: Renoir, Jean; Simon, Michel; Grandval, Charles ISBN: 0780030125 Edition: Pub.Date: 8/23/2005 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mercenary For Justice By: Fauntleroy, Don E.; Seagal, Steven; Goss, Luke; Lord, Jacqueline ISBN: 6309991248 Edition: Pub.Date: 4/18/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Little Fish By: Blanchett, Cate ISBN: 6309992848 Edition: Pub.Date: 4/11/2006 Binding: Digital Video Disk -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ******************************************************* LIBRARY STATISTICS: April 2006 Items Borrowed: 20,119 Children's programs 15 Attendance 349 Reference Questions: 752 ******************************************************* June 2006 Program Highlights PARENT-CHILD BOOK CLUB will be meeting Monday Night, June 5th, at 6:30pm Meeting will be held in the Multipurpose Room.
