We had a very enthusiastic group of builders yesterday evening at LEGO Club. Catch us again for more Thursday evenings of creativity and fun next month on March 14 and 28 anytime from 5-6:30 PM upstairs at the library!

This coming Monday (2/26) at 6 PM the Cookbook Book Club will be meeting back up again at the library! This month’s theme is desserts and everyone is encouraged to bring a prepared dish from their own recipe collection or one selected from one of our local cookbooks.

Yesterday evening at the library we got to learn about how microwaves work, how certain ingredients react when cooked, and eventually ended up with some cupcakes to snack on afterward as a product of the lesson. Keep an eye out for what our next visit from Bloomsburg Children’s Museum will be about, including a double booking in April to make up for the January event that got snowed out!

As always, thank you to Bloomsburg Children’s Museum for helping us bring educational programs like this into the community!

While Valentine’s Day has come and gone, you can still come down to the library and pick out a “Blind Date with a Book” selection from our front display area! Each book has a hint concerning what it’s about written on the outside, so it’s up to you to decide which one sparks your interest based on the clue.

Once you’ve read the book, be sure to fill out the “Rate Your Date” bookmark inside and return it for a chance to win a special prize at the end of the month!

Join us this afternoon for Mahjong! Our newest program for adults is held at the library every Wednesday from 1-3 PM. If you’d like to learn the American version of this game, sign up is a must so please visit us at the library, give us a call, or send an email to shamokincoallibrary@gmail.com.

Shamokin-Coal Township Public Library will be closed tomorrow in observance of Presidents’ Day. We will resume normal hours on Tuesday, February 20.

Shamokin-Coal Township Public Library will be closed today. We will reopen Tuesday, February 20 at noon as we are closed for Presidents’ Day this coming Monday.

Come and warm up at the library with Book Bingo this evening (2/15) at 6 PM. Even if you don’t win any rounds, you’ll still be able to pick out a book of your choice to take home!

Thank you so much to the Anderson family for ordering in a special lunch for our library staff and for your incredibly kind words!

Happy Valentine’s Day from everyone here at Shamokin-Coal Township Public Library!
