The latest at the Bandera Library

By Mauri Guillén Fagan
Bandera Library Director

Did you know you can get documents notarized at the Bandera Public Library? In addition to making copies, sending faxes and using the public access computers, the library is pleased to offer notarization services. The cost is $5 for the first document and $1 for each additional document. Be sure to call to make an appointment for notary services.
The library will be closed next Monday, Jan. 18, in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Stop by for books and DVDs on the Civil Rights movement and the Reverend King to learn more about the Civil Rights giant.
Tuesday, Jan. 19, at 10:30 a.m., will be the monthly craft making party: It’s Snowing in Bandera! Kids and caretakers will learn how to make paper snowflakes and take a sweet treat home. Register online via Engaged Patrons on our website or you can give the library a call. Spots are limited, however, if your child cannot make the 19th, you can still sign up for a take-home kit with the supplies, instructions and their treat.
Three new thrillers out this week that are sure to be great reads. Faye Kellerman’s latest title is The Lost Boys. Set in a small town in upstate New York, detectives Peter Decker and his partner Tyler McAdams are called in when a developmentally disabled man goes missing. Despite the entire town volunteering to scour the nearby woods for him, the police determine the man did not lose his way – he left with someone he knew. A recently fired nurse from the nursing home the missing man lives in turns up gone as well. The trail gets even more complicated when remains of three young men who were camping in the woods are found too. What on earth is going on in this little town? Decker and McAdams intend to find out.
Fans of Downton Abbey will love a new historical fiction novel by Julie Kelly called The Last Garden in England. The story is told in the present day, in 1907 and in 1944 from the perspective of five women living very different experiences all linked by the picturesque gardens of the famed Highbury House estate. The novel reminds us each that we are all linked and often in unexpected ways.
The Bandera Library is open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturdays 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Curbside service is still available for checkouts and business services. Free Wi-Fi is available 24/7. Check out our website www.banderacountylibrary.org for all up-to-date information.
