You can see some of the new books we add to the catalog each day by visiting The Book Wall. Here’s a sample of some titles that were added yesterday. Be sure to visit The Book Wall every day!
Don’t miss Sit & Stitch, one of our most popular programs at the Pontiac branch! Sit & Stitch meets every Thursday from 4:30 – 6:00 pm in the large meeting room. People of all knitting skill level are invited. If you’re new to knitting, Miss LaDonna can get you going with some needles and yarn.
Tax forms are available at the stand near the desk. If we don’t have a form you need, please ask and we can print it off for you. Also, our State forms have yet to arrive, but you can print them off from the Indiana IRS site at http://www.ai.org/dor/taxforms/individual07.html.
You can also find Federal forms here: http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/lists/0,,id=97817,00.html
Free tax help will be available at the Pontiac branch beginning Monday February 4 and will continue each Monday through April 14 from 12 – 4. This is a service provided by AARP .

Don’t miss our book group discussion next Monday (January 21) from 6 – 7pm! This month we’ll be discussing Mark Anthony’s The Take Down. Copies are still available on the Hold Pickup wall next to the circulation desk.
Cover to Cover meets the third Monday of every month and focuses on books by African American authors.
