Happy Thursday everyone!
When I came up to open the Library today at noon I found a pleasant surprise. There were numerous painted rocks of various sizes and shapes.
I didn't know why they were left. A patron came in and explained to me that these were Kindness Rocks. So I looked it up and found this on Wikipedia.
The Kindness Rocks Project is a viral trend where people, commonly children, paint pebbles or cobbles and leave them for others to find and collect. Photos of the painted rocks and hints of where to find them are commonly shared on Facebook groups. The trend originated in the U.S. and has spread to the other countries, including U.K., Australia, New Zealand, and Haiti. Wikipedia.
So come by and check it out.

Happy Hump Day everyone!
Saw this in AARP magazine and thought I would share these recommended books for our "OLDER AND BOLDER " patrons.
I've read two in this stack that were very good.
We don't have these on our shelves right now but if you want we can purchase them or we can order them through SHARE Illinois Heartland consortium.
Happy reading everyone!
