The Dubuque County Library Board of Trustees signed an agreement with Northeast Iowa Community College and the City of Peosta to open a community library within the new library addition at NICC. The NICC library will be moving in July and we plan to be open for business by the end of August. It is a fabulous facility and everyone in the county should check it out. We are very grateful to the citizens of Peosta and NICC administration for providing this incredible opportunity.
In other news, DCL just started email notification. If you gave us an email address when you registered for a library card, now we will let you know through an email message when a book you wanted is ready to pick up and when your books are due. This is a fast, efficient, and cost effective way of communicating with you. So the next time you stop by your community branch, make sure and let staff know if you have an email address and we will add it to your patron record.
There are still lots of programs going on for summer reading. On Monday, June 27th, the tweens will be geocaching with Jenny from Dubuque County Conservation at Swiss Valley Park from 11:30 until 1:00. We continue our worldwind tour at Epworth Branch on Tuesday, June 28th, at 7:00 p.m. Nancy Burds will present a program on China. Watch the best Oscar winning movie, "The King's Speech," at Asbury Branch on June 30th at 7:00 p.m. Regular storytimes continue so check our website calendar for details.
Today everyone had big fun at the Storm Chaser programs as well storytime and a movie. Don't miss out. Mark your own family calendar to include Dubuque County Library summer activities.
