Since 2012, the library has been serving the Marine, Scandia, and May Township area under a unique partnership between the City of Marine, Washington County, and area residents. It is run entirely by volunteers. We believe that the library makes up for its small space by the quality of its book collections, which are continually upgraded with new bestsell- ers and other in -demand offerings, across all genres. Since we are networked with the Washington County library system, county books also can be delivered to Marine for you to pick up. To find out what's new, to look for a particular book or author, or to see upcoming events, go to our website: www.marinecommunitylibrary.org, follow us on the library Facebook page, or use the "contact us" tab to request to be on the library e-mail list. In addition to spring showers, April will bring a number of programs related to "The Big Read," a one book, one community pro- gram that brings together residents from throughout the St. Croix Valley around a common book. This year's book is Love Medi- cine, by Minnesota author Louise Erdrich. Marine Library will join other libraries throughout the St. Croix Valley in hosting Big Read book discussions around Love Medicine. The library has nine copies available for book clubs to borrow. The Big Read kick-off event, "Crossing the Water," will be held at the Marine Village Hall on Saturday, April 11, from 1 to 4 p.m. This family -friendly event begins with a welcome by Ojibwe activist Sharon M. Day, includes an activity for young people based on Ms. Erdrich's children's book, Chickadee, and will culminate with a musical performance by Troubadour Larry Long at 3 p.m. Scandia Community Center will be the venue for a Big Read highlight, the play "Jack's Back Door Cafe," Saturday, April 18, at 7 p.m. It is a tale about community, spiritual connection and our relationship with the natural world. This free event is co -sponsored by the library and the Scandia-Marine Lions. The Big Read in the St. Croix Valley is presented by ArtReach St. Croix under a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest. Finally, watch for details of another summer full of literary fun for "kids" of all ages. And, do stop in to get your free Marine Com- munity Library card today!
