As we reopen the library, we will continue creating & checking out topical book bags for busy parents or kids who like to open up a surprise bag filled with books chosen by Miss Val! To check out a book bag, you may request one by calling 223-2882 and ask to add book bags to your holds order or to have it available the next time you come in to browse (call at least one day ahead of when you plan to come in). You may also email Miss Val with your book bags request at vcyouthlib@gmail.com. All book bags orders are subject to availability. You must also be a SEKnFind library card holder with a current, unrestricted account to check out books. Each bag contains 10 books on the given topic, chosen by Miss Val and packed by our clerks. The bag may also contain stickers and bookmarks. The bag and goodies are for you to keep, while the books will need to be returned on our usual return schedule.
