Blind Date with a Book

This summer, revive your love of the written word by checking out one of our Popular Fiction books during the Library’s Blind Date with a Book event. These books are going ‘under wraps,’ so instead of selecting your reading material based on title, cover art, or author, you may have to choose a book based on several clues about the book’s contents. Here’s how it works:

  1. Visit the library website. A news item will appear when the display is ready.
  2. The display will be located by the main floor computers. The books will be covered in brown paper. You’ll need to read the clues to make your choice.
  3. Pick a book based on the clues, and bring it to the Circulation Desk for check out. You will have the option of checking these books out for the normal amount of time, or for the entire summer—your choice.
  4. Once you check out the book, take it home, unwrap, and enjoy!
  5. Return the book when you finish reading so we can wrap it for a new patron.

Now that you know how it will work, stay tuned via the library website. Have any questions or need additional information on the participating books? Email Liz Gruchala-Gilbert or Stephanie Rubesh for the details. Until then, happy studying!
