Pathfinders

Pathfinders are guides to help you find information on specific topics, both online and from the library. I have created a pathfinder for a project for an Introduction to Reference class, and am providing a link on this blog. In the future I may create more pathfinders and will add them.

Here is the link to the first one. Perimenopause and Menopause Pathfinder I will also provide a link to this and any future pathfinders on the right. I hope you will find it useful.

Project Porchlight

Palliser Regional Libraries were distributing energy efficient CFL lightbulbs to residents throughout Sask. Library Week, through Project Porchlight. Davidson Library was not included because we are to be supplied by a different agency. However, Palliser had some surplus bulbs that they have given to us to distribute.

Please stop by the library and pick up your FREE compact flourescent light bulb -- one per household. Supplies are limited.

Will it break?


Dropping their egg-creations...

Some of them never even survived the invention process, rolling off the tables...

It was a rainy day, and we were few in number, but it seemed that a good time was had, and the rain stopped in time for the outdoor testing of the inventions.

Twilight Saga books are in!



Our books have arrived! We just received Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse, the first three books of Stephenie Meyers' Twilight Saga. The fourth book in the series, Breaking Dawn, comes out on August 2nd, so if you read fast you might have time to get the first three read before it comes out! Then, if you are between the ages of 13 & 18, you can enter our contest (see post further down) and let us know who you think Bella should end up with... Edward or Jacob? Prize? A fresh-off-the-press copy of Breaking Dawn.

If you're too old to enter the contest, sorry! But you can still read the books -- there are many, many adult readers of the series. {You might want to give the teens a chance to read them first so they can enter the contest, though. ;-) }

We had a great time with storyteller Patty Perry today! How appropriate that her theme was dogs, and we'd planned a hot dog lunch to follow... ;-)

31 kids.... 4 dozen hot dogs... lots of laughs. :-)
