Join us at the Friends' Book Tent Event on Saturday, April 13th
The Book Tent Event will take place during the last monthly City Yard Sale of the season from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. at Hagen Park, 2020 Wilton Drive.
Money raised at the Book Tent Event is an important source of revenue which enables the all-volunteer, non-profit Friends of the Library to underwrite the cost of programs, video purchases, and the acquisition of computers and other equipment at your local "independent municipal library," the Richard C. Sullivan Public Library of Wilton Manors.
Friends Sponsored Online Book Clubs All you need is 5 minutes a day and an email address to join one of the Library's FREE online book clubs! Are you looking for great new authors? Looking for a great book? Would you like to sample a book before you commit to checking it out? Do you like chocolate chip cookies? If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions then you need to join one of the Library's online book clubs. How does it work? Every week you'll sample a new book. Monday through Friday, a quick 5-minute read is delivered to your email box and waiting for you to peruse with your morning cup of coffee. At the end of Friday's read the ending page number is given so when you pick up the book from the Library you know where you left off. (There is also a link on the emails to quickly and easily reserve the book from the library.) There's a book club for just about everyone, including: fiction, non-fiction, romance, mystery, science fiction, audio, business, pre-publication (be the first to see these soon-to-be-released books), teen, good news, and horror. On Mondays and Thursdays, Suzanne, your book club editor, offers a link to AuthorBuzz, where she introduces you to 3 or 4 authors and their books. Suzanne also holds giveaways where you can win funny or cool prizes -- and once a month, Suzanne bakes homemade cookies for the winners of her chocolate chip cookie giveaway. The online book clubs are a fun and stress-free way to read. And, as Suzanne always ends her columns, "It's so good to read with friends." To signup, click on the image above or on this link.
