Merry Christmas from the ladies at the De Queen Library we hope all have safe travels and journeys.
Thank you to the community for having such giving hearts. The food for fines and Mr. Rogers Sweater Drive was a great success once again. We collected so many items to be distributed locally for the community we haven’t had time to count them. We collected 147lbs all together for food for fines.
We will be having a story time with Tammy Smith of the De Queen School System on December 4th at 4 pm. The book will be read aloud while she uses American Sign Language to convey the story to the children.
The De Queen Library will kick off its 10th annual Christmas program with the 5th annual Cocoa and story with Mrs. Claus Saturday December 14th at 10 am. There will be lots of fun, songs stories and goodies for the first 30 Children.

Tis the season to be jolly. Speaking of Jolly we have some exciting news. Photographers Don House and Sabine Schmidt has included the Horatio Library in their Remote Access project. Horatio was one of the 25 library's chosen out of the 235 public library's in Arkansas. The project highlights the small libraries across the state and the people who rely on them. They will be visiting the library on Saturday, December 7th from 8:30 til 12:30. House states " I'm interested in the people, their personality, what they're wearing, what they're carrying, why they are there. There is no posing, no pre-conceived notions. When I'm done, if I've been successful, I have opened a window on the community, the people who make it what it is." The collection of photo's will be put in a book and be a part of a traveling exhibition. No cost of any kind is involved. As a thank you for participation each person will receive a complimentary copy of their photo. Mrs. Amy received a letter from Santa and Mrs. Claus last Friday saying they will be stopping by the library on December, 21. There will be a story time at 10 a.m. and first 30 kids will receive a stocking full of goodies. Boys and Girls make sure you are on your best behavior because Santa will want to know. We look forward to seeing you here. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year.
