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. Here are
some of the titles we’ve
received in the last few weeks:
