| Roselle Library to Host Summer Programs for Children
and Teens...
 It's that time of year again, when school is
out and young minds need to be kept sharp. The Roselle Public Library will have
a variety of activities for those age groups, which will make learning as enjoyable as
a dip in the pool.
For children, the summer reading program theme is“ Catch the Reading Bug! ” Marita Parham, our library associate for children's services, has been busy as a bee planning programs. Prog-
rams will begin on July 7, with sessions aimed towards pre-schoolers, “bee-tweens”, and everyone else within those age brackets. A “Bug Club” will meet on Tuesday evenings, and
other activities are in the works, as well.
For the high school level, Nicole Younger, our library associate for teen services, has programs geared to life now and life after ACHS (or wherever you are attending school). For example,
how do you fill out an employment application, and what do you wear to an interview? Do you know what you want to go to college for, and what schools have those courses? If your teen
is more literary minded, a book discussion group will meet on Wednesday afternoons. Full Story>

Roselle Library to Celebrate Seventy Years and More...
This year will mark the seventieth anniversary of the opening of the current library building, after the Library and its predecessors had moved through four different sites over the preceding fifty years. The Library is also celebrating the completion of almost $500,000 in renovations to the existing building.
The building was dedicated to the residents of Roselle who served in what was then knows as “The Great War”. The dedicatory ceremonies were held on the evening of Armistice Day in 1937.
