By the Numbers...

Summer has started off with a bang here at the library!  Our first full week of summer reading was full of exciting events, lots of visits from patrons, plus a ton of books, movies, audiobooks and video games were checked-out.  I thought I'd tell you more about this crazy week with a few numbers:

1.)  956:  number of Morgan County residents who signed up for summer reading in the FIRST 5 DAYS!

2.)  186:  number of adult summer reading reviews turned in during week one.  The team summer reading challenge stands at Team Curie: 88 and Team Einstein: 98.



3.) 173:  number of prize books just waiting to be claimed from the teen summer reading prize cart.  There is quite a selection too-- everything from Manga to your favorite vampire series!




4.) 65:  number of programs still to come in the month of June!  Check out our event calendar to see what we've got in store for all ages:  https://in.evanced.info/morg/lib/eventcalendar.asp?lib=ALL




 
5.)  89:  number of awesome Dewey Dash runners and walkers who participated in this year's 5K library fundraiser.

6.) around 16 : minutes it took the winner of the Dewey Dash to run the 3.1 mile course.  Wow, we were impressed!



We are excited to see how the rest of the summer reading season adds up!  Check back in and see what we're up to in the weeks to come!

Happy Reading,

Jennifer
