Join us for Blind Date with a Book during the month of February.

If you enjoy trying new books, reading a good romance, or not judging a book by its cover, you won't want to miss this fun library display. 

Each book will be wrapped up with a few descriptive words or sentences about the book on the cover. Select a book or two and take it to the circulation desk to be checked out. Then take it home and unwrap your blind date. See if it is love at first sight, or if it is better to remain friends...
