Lakehills Library Leanings​

By Vicki L. George
The Bandera Prophet

The Lakehills Area Library has unlocked the doors and allows patrons to enter from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Masks are required, as is social distancing, and no seating is available.
Ancestry.com is freely available to patrons, either in the library or from home, through the month of August. From home, simply go to lakehillslibrary.com and click on the Catalog link at the top of the page. A new tab will open with the catalog on it. Enter your library card number, and your phone number as your password. Scroll down the left hand column, with the list of the online resources and Ancestry should be at the bottom of the list. Just click on Ancestry.
The Genealogy Group asks for the community’s help in raising the annual fee to access Ancestry. Mail any amount to the Lakehills Area Library and indicate on the memo line that it is for Ancestry.
All services are available including books, movies, audio, printing, faxing, notary and scanning. Also, there are hundreds of paperback and hardcover books for sale.
Two computers are available and they ask that you reserve your time for their use.
Director Dianna Landes reminds patrons that, if anyone is uncomfortable coming inside, all services are still available at the door. The free WiFi is always available in the parking lot.
The library is now signing up the preschool kiddos for the Fall Preschool Storytime Program, which will begin Monday, Aug. 31. Landes will read to the youngsters virtually through YouTube and craft kits may be picked up by parents at the library each week. The crafts are designed to meet preschool learning requirements with an emphasis on letters, numbers, reading and writing. Parents can register at lakehillslibrary@gmail.com or call the library at 830-751-2777.
The Book Club has resumed with the option of in-person or Zoom. The next meeting is Tuesday, Aug. 25, at 1 p.m. If you want to part a part of Zoom, email the library to sign up at lakehillslibrary@gmail.com. If you wish to come in person, it is open to the public and anyone is welcome to come discuss this month’s book, The Mother-in-Law by Sally Hepworth.
The library’s hours are Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is located at 7200 FM 1283 and the phone number is 830-510-2777. The email address is lakehillslibrary@gmail.com. Their website is lakehillslibrary.org. ​
