February comes along and people start thinking about love. Instead of just thinking about the love of your life, think about other things you could love, like your library.
February is Love Your Library Month. There are many ways you could love your library. You could donate your time, money or expertise to your library. Why not buy the library a subscription to a popular magazine or donate that book you just bought and have finished reading. Donate your older books for a book sale. You could volunteer to run a program for any age group. Just think of what you do best and maybe others would like to know how to do it, too. Maybe you could help promote the library by making or putting up posters for the programs. You could also volunteer to shelve books or look for books that have been miss-shelved, serve coffee at a program, or help clean up after a program.
There are probably many other ways to love your library, so contact your local library and see what you can do for them.
February is a busy month at the library. Besides it being Love Your Library Month it is also Aboriginal Storytelling Month, Valentine's Day Feb. 14, Freedom To Read Week is Feb. 24 to March 2 and Family Day is Feb. 18.
Check out your local library and see what events they are putting on or what ideas they have to help you.
