2 min read

CRYSTAL FALLS -- The Crystal Falls District Community Library is rolling out a variety of passive programs in November.

The library invites patrons to participate in a scavenger hunt, or pick up a weekly word puzzle. Participants with a completed scavenger hunt sheets and word puzzles will be awarded a unique and waterproof sticker of their choice.

Those looking for some screen-free quality time with friends and family can check out the library's collection of board games or pick up a craft kit or coloring sheet to complete at home or in one of the various social areas in the library.

The library now has a new projector and screen for movie screenings and presentations. Attendees of Movie Mondays will be able to enjoy a theatre-like viewing of selected movies because of the new equipment now at the library.

Movie Mondays feature a specially selected film to be screened at 1 p.m. weekly, with popcorn and coffee available to attendees. The program is open to the public.

Ladies' Night in Downtown Crystal Falls will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesday. All ladies who visit the library during this time will receive a free book courtesy of the Friends of the Library. Appetizers and drinks will be served.

The night is sure to be one for the books, and a wonderful way to meet and socialize with other women of the community.

A reminder that the Crystal Falls Library has changed its circulation rules as of Oct. 1.

All books and CD books now have a checkout duration of one month as opposed to two weeks. DVDs now have a checkout duration of one week as opposed to five days, and the library no longer charges a fee for checking out a DVD.

Patrons may checkout up to 25 non-video items and up to five DVDs. Fines for overdue items have also been changed from 25 cents per day to 5 cents per day, with a cap at $5 in fines.

The library hopes to encourage patrons to enjoy the library and all the materials available without the burden of large fines and limited borrowing times.
