CYPRUS MEDIA CENTER - Blog

Thanks, Mr. Lundgren!

3/13/2019

We are so excited about our new call number guides that were made right here in our very own Cyprus wood shop! Mr. Lundgren made it possible for us to have these awesome three-dimensional letters, each over 7 inches tall, to help all of our library patrons find the author names they are looking for quickly and easily.

Sock Drive!

12/14/2018

It's a season for giving, and in the media center we're taking it one step further. During the month of December, we are collecting new socks to donate to our very own Pirate Pantry. For every new package of socks that you donate, you will receive your own "Snitch" (a delicious Lindor white chocolate truffle) and a button. Help us free house elves everywhere and keep some mistle-toes warm this holiday season!

Banned Books Week 2018

9/23/2018

Maybe you've heard of books being challenged or removed from libraries before - "Banned Book Week" is held every year to encourage readers everywhere to stand up for their right to read what they want to read - including you! Take a moment to look over some of the top banned books, and learn more about what books have recently been banned or challenged around the country, including The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas and Drama by Raina Telgemeier.

Bookmark Challenge!

9/20/2018

If you haven't snagged one of these bookmarks yet, we still have plenty available at the circulation desk. Not only are they "charming" to look at (pun intended), but they have the ability to magically transform into a candy bar and raffle ticket - all in one! All you have to do is read a book, fill out the back of the bookmark, and redeem it at the media center for a candy bar and chance to win other great prizes in our raffle to end all raffles at the end of the quarter. Don't want to give up such a cool bookmark? We get it; they are pretty awesome. You can get another one as soon as you redeem the first!
