Blog: Day 1

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and to welcome our library users to our new blog! I am Eileen Pearce, Adult Services Librarian and webmaster for the Windsor Locks Public Library. Some of you may know that we already have a book blog where our borrowers can read and comment on personal reviews of many of the books in our collection.

This new blog will serve a different purpose, to announce new acquisitions and events at the Windsor Locks Public Library and also as an open invitation to YOU to check out different sections of our web site and see what's new without having to browse at random (time savings!). We would also like to use this space as a way to let you know how things have been going and to hear about what you think. Maybe you didn't get a chance to attend a program and would like to know how it turned out or perhaps you DID attend and have some comments to make. We welcome your viewpoints on our programming, our services, our collection, and anything else that you might care to mention. Please don't limit yourself to the web, though! Call us at 627-1495 or stop in and visit to let us know what you think and how you like what we are doing. Visit our web site at windsorlockslibrary.org for details on programs, reference resources, great links for readers, book clubs, our catalog, and lots of other great things.

Bookmark this blog by right-clicking on a section of the page with no graphics or text and choosing "create shortcut" from the menu (this will create an icon on your desktop) or add it to your favorites. Consider this blog to be your gateway to our library's web site, a quick glance at what you may want to explore in more detail on our web site or @ your library! It will be updated several times a week and eventually will replace our INFOMAIL and BEST SELLER ALERT email lists. Let me know what you think!
