Registration for Children and Teen Summer Reading Programs

has begun. Stop by the library

and set your reading goal for the summer!

Through the eREADS in eWashington program library patrons can check out a NOOK Simple Touch, pre-loaded with a selection of titles. The goal of the project is to demystify the eReading experience for library patrons and connect libraries through resource sharing.

Six library systems in a five-county area are participating. Patrons with a Denny Ashby Library card have the option of checking out one of 12 NOOKs. A $25.00 deposit is required upon checkout. The NOOKs will rotate among libraries, and our library will always have two "living" here. Each NOOK is pre-loaded with a variety of books from 12 different genres: Classics, Contemporary/Literary Fiction, Biography, Young Adult, Historical Fiction, Mystery, Romance, Readable Nonfiction, Thrillers/Suspense, and Fantasy. We are currently circulating NOOKs containing Historical Fiction and Mysteries.

Check the library's Facebook page for NOOK arrival dates and lists of titles. Questions? Contact the library: 509-843-3710. 

The project is funded through a grant from the Washington State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
