Major Activities

Activity 2

Bosler memorial library's reference librarians provide personal assistance to visitors for their library needs ranging from quick reference to detailed research. They help people find or acquire the materials they need through inter-library loan, answering questions in person, over the telephone, online and by e-mail. In addition, the reference libraries provide instruction to patrons who are unfamiliar with computers on how to navigate the internet, search for jobs online and apply for unemployment benefits. They also help select and maintain materials for the library collections and compile lists of books, periodicals, articles and audiovisual materials on particular subjects.

Activity 3

Bosler memorial library makes it a priority to help ensure that all children enter kindergarten with the language, cognitive, and early reading skills needed for success in school and are based on the state's educational guidelines. Story time programs for infants through kindergarten-age children feature rhymes, songs and crafts. Innovative programs such as "you can count on mother goose" teach early math skills to students in grades k2. "meet the artists" brings to life different forms of art and the processes of creating and expressing art. During the summer students in bosler's summer reading program can improve or maintain their reading skills. This broad array of programs is made available with one purpose in mind -- to encourage a lifelong love of reading in the children of our community. 488 programs were offered with an attendance of 11,088.
