Return of the Blog!

By
It was recently brought to my attention that I haven't updated this blog in a while. I thought to myself, 'That's true, I should really go look at it!'

 Then I came and actually looked at the page and...it's been a whole year?! Unacceptable!

 So my new year resolution (a little late in coming) is to regularly update this page with library happenings, book reviews, and more.

 We didn't do a March Madness this year, for the first time in 5+ years, but that's because the Teen Advisory Group and I have had our plates full. Back in January, we hosted our first ever Comic Convention- Zaki Con. It was a 3 day event that was both exhausting and so much fun. Looking forward to planning it again for next year! 

 We just had another first, our first ever SherLock In. A lock in dedicated to watching the first two seasons of the BBC Sherlock. We even had our own, original Escape the Room Challenge, created by our Technical Services Librarian, Keith! We were all in need of sleep afterward, but it was worth it!


So, as you can see, we've been coming up with great teen programs lately! And I can't wait to tell you about what's coming up in April and May. But that will be for another post...which I will definitely write and post! I swear!

Zaki Con 2019: Cosplay Contest!

By
The final event  of Zaki Con is our cosplay contest. I assume you're familiar with cosplay if you're reading, but just in case you aren't: cosplay is " the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime." And anyone can do it! Young and old alike are adorable when dressing as their favorite characters from books, movies, and anime! At Zaki Con, we want to see your interpretation of cosplay! You can enter as one person or as a group (though groups will have to share prizes if they win). All you have to do is come dressed as your favorite character. Since Zaki Con is a family event and it is held in the public library, all costumes must be appropriate for our setting and audience! Entries will be judged by a panel of judges from the library and the community. We look forward to seeing your cosplays during the Con and at the contest which will be held at 5:00pm on Saturda

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

By
 1. Gather supplies.  2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even.  6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
