Redlands Library :: ‘Seedfolks’ Named 2019 Community Read by Adult Literacy Program

‘Seedfolks’ named 2019 Community Read by Redlands Adult Literacy Program

Redlands Daily Facts: 5.03.2019 by Diane Shimota , Adult Literacy Coor-A.K. Smiley Library

Springtime in Redlands is a time of abundant color and planting of spring gardens. Adult learners who have improved their reading and writing skills in the Redlands Adult Literacy Program also grow, forming new relationships in their families and community.

Recognizing this connection, the Redlands Adult Literacy Program selected “Seedfolks” by Paul Fleischman as the 2019 Community Read. Adult learners, their tutors and community members are encouraged to read “Seedfolks,” which highlights the impact on individuals and a neighborhood when the diverse backgrounds and strengths of local residents meet in a community garden.

═════════►

Join the literacy community and read “Seedfolks” by Paul Fleischman. The book is available for checkout at the A.K. Smiley Public Library. Save the date of Sept. 7, 2019, when everyone will be invited to celebrate the impact of “Seedfolks” on our community.  READ MORE >>

Downey Library :: Customers And Staff Look Forward To New Beginnings

At The Downey Library, Customers And Staff Look Forward To New Beginnings

Downey Patriot: 3.19.2019 by Lorine Parks

Under a bright blue sky, when the trees around the Downey City Library are about to put forth green buds and leaves, a party was going on. The amazing blue ribbon library staff had invited kids and their parents, and had balloons and Spin The Wheel Games of chance with candy and books and puzzles as prizes. Finger painting on hither-to untouchable white walls.

And it almost looked like business as usual. In the Friends’ Used Book Room, sales were brisk. Book lover Mitch proudly held up his catch of the day, Marcella, one of Johnny Gruelle’s Raggedy Ann’s stories, Volunteer Marcia toted up his purchases while his wife Joy stood by, ready to pay.

But the Library is about to close for 15 months, and this new beginnings party was to celebrate the new phase of life for this beloved Downey institution.

Claudia took time from her busy schedule to show us how so many Downey organizations will be proxy-hosting for the library. Literacy program tutoring, which is near and dear to Claudia’s heart, is every Tuesday and Thursday from 1 to 2 pm at the First Baptist Church. Adult Communication Class will meet Mondays at 11 am at the Downey Women’s Club.

The Library’s book discussion club, Booked For Lunch, which has 20 or so active members, will meet Thursdays at 10:30 am at the First Baptist Church.  Summer reading shows will be scheduled on Mondays in June and July at the Downey Theatre.  Impressive.

“The renovation gives library staff an opportunity to pause,” Ben said, “and rethink how we work and what we offer. The construction gives us time to develop these programs.”  READ MORE >>
