After weeks of getting settled into my new apartment in Kenosha, I can finally call myself an official resident – library card and all.
So what exactly did my card and I find on our first of many visits to the Northside Public Library? Some pretty amazing things:
1) Lots of people!
2) Lots and lots of books to rent (or buy)!
But as I walked to the circulation desk, I saw the "Friends of the Library Book Sale" shelf, whose proceeds go to improving the library. With most books being just $1, I couldn't help but buy an armful:
I found my selection had a little mix of everything I like: A couple New York Times bestsellers, a bit of Eastern philosophic thought, books about other parts of the world where I would love to travel and some good old fashioned history to teach me a thing or two. |
3) Lots and lots and LOTS of future opportunities!
