Do you need community service hours?


I am still taking volunteers for the Seniors Computer Training.  If you are thinking about it, you may want to see a few YouTube Clips on Cyber- Seniors http://cyberseniorsdocumentary.com/ Once you seen the clips and still want to help out ,call Margaret at 905-563-7014 ext 210 for more information. This is a rewarding experience.

  




Last Friday, I went to the Child Youth Blow Out in Toronto. It was a blast. I was so lucky, Kelley Armstrong  was there and she  talked about how to write a book. She is great. If you not have read any of her books. I really recommend them. Here is a list of some of her series.

The Darkest Power
1. The summoning
2. The awakening
3. The reckoning

Darkness Rising
1. The gathering
2. The calling
3. The rising

 Age of Legends
1. Sea of shadows

 Also at the Child Youth Blow Out  some of the other libraries in Ontario were showing us what programs they are running. Stayed tuned  in the  few next weeks for our Winter Program Sessions.

Are there any programs that you would like to see happen for teens at the Lincoln Public Library?

For example:
  • Are you interested in New Age stuff like tarot cards?
  • Would you like a Chicken Soup for the Soul type program?
  • How about Steampunk?

Let me know what you would leave your house for to come to the library and participate in a program. You can call me at 905-563-7014 ext. 210 or email  daley@lincoln.library.on.ca  I am looking forward to hearing from you. 



The Christmas Season is coming fast. Some people already have their tree up and Christmas lights on. I still have my scarecrows and Halloween stuff outside my house. I am so behind. I better take it down soon or it will look like the Nightmare before Christmas; I love that movie.  It's about  Jack Skellington, king of Halloweentown, discovers Christmas Town, but doesn't quite understand the concept. The director of the film is Henry Selick and the writer is Tim Burton (based on: a story and characters by), Michael McDowell (adaptation),  We have  the DVD at the library. So if you are 16 and over you can take out DVDs on you own card.




Well on that note. Have a great day everyone. Now I have that song in my head. This is Halloween, Halloween.

Here is some information on the song "This is Halloween" from the Disney Wiki
http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/This_is_Halloween

This is Halloween" is a song by composer Danny Elfman from the 1993 film The Nightmare Before Christmas. It is performed by the residents of the fictional "Halloween Town", which is the film's main setting. The song is featured in HalloWishes at both the Magic Kingdom and at Disneyland's Halloween Screams. In Calaway Park, it is featured in the haunted mansion. It is also used as the background music for the Halloween Town world in the Kingdom Hearts video game series, as well as the background music of the Disney INFINITY in the skydome of The Nightmare Before Christmas. The song is featured in the music video game Just Dance 3.

So if  you too want the song stuck in your head. Here are the lyrics.
