Well, the Summer Reading Program has come and gone but the Contest will be until July 31. So make sure you turn in your reading records in time.

Horatio Library Summer is in full force. It is so hot outside. What better thing to do than to sit at home and read a good book. We have a lot of good books this month. We have new books that are for everyone in the family. Summer is a good time for the kids to do some extra reading. We will be having our children’s program on July 16th at 10 a.m. Please make plans to come out and join us. If you haven’t you need to stop by and look at our new interactive sidewalk. Bring the kids, they will love it, come on in and see what Horatio Library has to offer you.
