Our New Logo & More<br />
We are pleased to<br />
announce we will<br />
be updating all of<br />
our branding with<br />
a fresh new look to<br />
match the renovations<br />
we have done in<br />
recent years. When<br />
designing our new logo, we wanted a modern<br />
representation of the concept of the library<br />
and what it stands for in our community.<br />
Though the logo may appear in different<br />
colors now and then, the primary color is the<br />
shade of blue pictured here, which matches<br />
the color of the walls in our beloved Carnegie<br />
at the Main Library. <strong>The</strong> symbols in the logo<br />
represent the following:<br />
• Open Book - <strong>The</strong> traditional understanding<br />
of a library as a home for books and<br />
literacy as well as the openness we strive<br />
for in terms of access and outlook.<br />
• Light Bulb - <strong>The</strong> knowledge and ideas that<br />
we hope to inspire and facilitate.<br />
• Play Button - Our goal to be a playful<br />
environment in which to learn and grow, as<br />
well as the multimedia nature of our role in<br />
the 21st century.<br />
• Interconnected Globe - <strong>The</strong> standard icon<br />
for the World Wide Web and the Internet,<br />
to which access is important for everyone<br />
and allows us to connect globally.<br />
• Gear - <strong>The</strong> act of making. <strong>The</strong> maker<br />
movement, which is the basis for our<br />
maker labs, encourages tinkering of all<br />
kinds and an adaptive mentality.<br />
We will be releasing a fresh new website in<br />
the coming months. We thank you in advance<br />
for your patience as we transition.<br />

FROM OUR CHILDREN’S LIBRARIAN<br />
Bad Guys, Good Reading<br />
Over the summer <strong>The</strong> Bad Guys series was<br />
most asssuredly one of the most popular<br />
book series checked out by our 7-12 year-old male<br />
patrons. <strong>The</strong> graphic novel version of the Wings<br />
of Fire series certainly gave them a run for their<br />
money, but this one was still the #1 item I saw<br />
getting checked out. As the mother of a little boy<br />
who I sometimes have to bribe to read, seeing<br />
kids his age eager to read these books, certainly<br />
piqued my interest. <strong>The</strong> Bad Guys Episode 9: <strong>The</strong><br />
Big Bad Wolf, just hit our shelves in September, so<br />
now seems like a great time to share my thoughts<br />
on these books. <strong>The</strong>y’re fantastic! I love them and<br />
best of all my son loves them and actually wants<br />
to read them! <strong>The</strong> Bad Guys Episode 1 introduces<br />
the main characters of Mr. Wolf, Mr. Piranha, Mr.<br />
Snake and Mr. Shark. Clearly they are all creatures<br />
that are notorious for being bad, but Mr. Wolf has a<br />
plan to change things! <strong>The</strong>y’re going to be heroes!<br />
<strong>The</strong>y’re going to be good guys! <strong>The</strong> first book<br />
covers Mr. Wolf working to convince his cohorts<br />
that they want to be good too, and they’ll start by<br />
breaking 200 dogs out of the Maximum Security<br />
City Dog Pound. Each book brings a hilarious new<br />
adventure in their quest to become good.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se books are a fantastic choice for kids just<br />
getting started reading chapter books. <strong>The</strong>re<br />
are tons of illustrations and not too many words<br />
on each page making it less daunting for young<br />
readers. <strong>The</strong>y are also laugh-out-loud funny, which<br />
makes for a great read-aloud even parents can<br />
enjoy. Usually when I start reading these with my<br />
son I only intend to read a chapter or two a night,<br />
but he always wants to keep going. Finding books<br />
that kids actually enjoy is essential for creating<br />
good readers. Hopefully your young reader will<br />
enjoy these as well! All 9 books in the series are<br />
currently available on our shelves, so come check<br />
them out! Happy Reading!<br />
