HELLO! HI! HOW ARE YOU???? I sure miss seeing your smiling faces, hearing your infectious laughter and watching your Tik Tok dances come to life! I even miss shushing you when you get too loud because I know it only happens when you are having a super great time with your friends. I'm sure it's hard to be cooped up at home and away from your friends but please know that this is only a temporary situation and one day, this will all be a story that you tell.
While you've been working hard on your schoolwork at home, I've also been home in meetings and searching for cool stuff to share with you.
First things first- BOOKS! Yes, the library is closed but that doesn't mean that you don't have access to amazing stories. If you have a library card you can still borrow digital copies of books and audiobooks through the Libby app!
If you don't have a library card, don't fret! Check out our previous blog post that details how you can sign up for a free instant digital card. If you run into trouble, leave a comment on this post and we'll help walk you through the steps! If you need book recommendations, please don't hesitate to ask!
Hoopla Digital is a FREE database available to you with your Blackstone Public Library card. Hoopla is a groundbreaking digital media service that allows you to borrow movies, music, audiobooks, ebooks, comics and TV shows to enjoy on your computer, tablet, or phone – and even your TV! With no waiting, titles can be streamed immediately, or downloaded to phones or tablets for offline enjoyment later. Hoopla has hundreds of thousands of titles to choose from, with more being added daily. It's like having your public library at your fingertips. Anytime. Anywhere.
Now for something FUN!
It's likely that your pets have become your best friends (although they probably were already) over the past few weeks. Maybe now they have become your classmates and snuggle on your lap while you are logged into a Google Classroom. Perhaps their antics are the only thing that bring an easy smile to your face. Or maybe they are confused as to why everyone is home all day and have picked up some new habits that make you laugh (or shake your head in confusion).
Well, we want to hear about it.
Send a photo of your furry (or not so furry) friend, along with some facts about your pet and they will be featured on the young adult Instagram page (@blackstone_library_ya) as well as our Facebook page!
Please email your submissions to kdelvecchio@cwmars.org or alandry@cwmars.org. If you have a question, leave it in the comments below. We look forward to seeing your pets!
