It’s hard to believe that August is almost upon us. We have had wonderful resppnse to our Summer Reading Programs on Wednesday after- noons.The series will conclude on Aug. 9. Due to budgets not having received final approval yet, we have not been able to order very many books this month. We continue to receive some books that were ordered in the spring and some new popular fiction, but we are presently in a lull. We anticipate ordering lots of new titles in September, though. In the meantime, we hope you will try reading a classic if the bestseller you’re waiting for is not available. Statistics for the fiscal year that ended June 30 reveal that we had a banner year in terms of circulation. Would you believe that we checked out more than 40,000 books in FY95? It’s so rewarding to be serving avid readers. The first month of the new fiscal year is off to a good start, too - we cir culated 2,347 books in the first 18 days. The 40,881 books checked out last year compares to 39,960 in FY94 and 29,748 in FY90. The .last few years have seen lots of changes in Perquimans County and in the library. Makes you wonder what the future holds in store, doesn’t it? The Perquimans County Library Board will hold their regularly scheduled meeting on ’Tuesday, Aug. 1 at 7:30 p.m. in the library. In the not-too- distant future lies the art show. The opening reception will be held Sunday afternoon. Sept. 10. It should be an enjoy able event for everyone involved. Later in September will be our big annual used book sale. I hope reading a good book is in your future.
