Public invited to National Library Week events at Sims Memorial Library
麻豆传媒映画出品鈥檚 Sims Memorial Library is inviting the public to special events during
National Library Week this week.
鈥淣ational Library Week is a time to highlight the changing role of libraries
both on and off campus. Libraries provide something unique to their communities, namely
the expertise of individual librarians,鈥� said Sims Outreach Librarian Angie Balius.
鈥淟ibrarians help people use increasingly complex technology and sort through the overwhelming
mass of information bombarding us in today鈥檚 digital society. This is especially crucial
when access to reliable and trustworthy data is more important than ever.鈥�
Balius said the library will celebrate National Library Week with three of its
most popular events of the year: the annual book sale, 鈥淩eadings at Sims,鈥� and 鈥淥verdue
Book Amnesty Days.鈥�
The library鈥檚 annual book sale will be held in the library lobby April 11 and
12 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and April 13 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. A wide variety of hardcover
and paperback books, videos, CDs and record albums will be available. Hard cover books
and DVDs are $2, paperback books are $1-2, and CDs are $1. Transactions are cash only.
On Tuesday, April 11, the library will celebrate 鈥淩eadings at Sims Library鈥� on
the third floor of Sims Library. Participants will hear selections from original works
by many talented writers in the community. Readings are led by librarian and local
author Dayne Sherman and begin at 6:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.
鈥淥verdue Book Amnesty Days,鈥� when library users can bring back overdue books
without having to pay fines, are Sunday, April 9 through Thursday, April 13.
鈥淏e aware that amnesty does not apply to all library fines and fees,鈥� Ballius
said. 鈥淚t applies only to books from the circulating stacks and does not include any
of the following: outstanding fines, such as unpaid overdue fines from books returned
in the past, lost book replacement fees, damaged books, reserve books, or equipment,
such as laptops or audio recorders.鈥�
For additional information about National Library Week, contact the library at
549-2027 or visit .
