Colorful spring flowers are starting to bloom and that means the end of the school year is fast approaching. Here at the library, we’re excited to continue supporting our teachers, students and families as we head into summer. And, as always, we’re ready to share some great services and programs that will help foster a smooth transition.
Our New Website
Perhaps you noticed a different look recently. Featuring our new logo, the website offers a completely re-designed online experience that makes it easier than ever to take advantage of all our services! Explore recommendations, view all of our library events, and check out the improved Educator and School Services page for all your school needs!
Book Match
Unsure what your next read should be, or what to recommend to a student? BCLS is happy to offer Book Match! Based on answers to our Book Match survey, BCLS librarians will create a personalized list of titles. The more information you provide, the better our suggestions will be. The books recommended will match the format you prefer and will be owned by BCLS. Remember, the more information you provide, the better our suggestions will be. Visit our Book Match survey to fill out a request, and then get ready for your new list of recommendations!
