Summerland Cover |
The Summer Reading Program here at the Virginia Public Library is well under way with children eagerly visiting the library to borrow more books, participate in Craft-TASTIC Tuesdays, and enjoy interesting programs. Children aren't the only ones reading, though, and we have some suggestions and tips for finding library items for kids of all ages.
There are many summer-related books in the library. One way to find them is to look for the word
summer using a Subject Keyword search in the library's
online catalog. A few of the titles from such a search include
Beach House Memories, by Mary Alice Monroe;
The Accidental, by Ali Smith; and
Summerland, by Elin Hilderbrand

Blueberry Summers Cover |
If you prefer non-fiction, you can limit the search by choosing Adult non-fiction in the "Limit by" box. Some titles from that search include
Blueberry Summers: Growing Up at the Lake, by Curtiss Anderson;
Mary Engelbreit's Summer Craft Book, by Mary Engelbreit; and
Resorts of Minnesota: Exploring the Heritage and History of Minnesota's Family Resorts, by Neil E. Johnson and Adam Swenson.

Country Living Cover |
For those who like magazines more than books, many of them have seasonal issues. Some to keep in mind are
Lake Superior Magazine,
Country Living, and
Backwoods Home. To find these and other magazine titles, you can do a Title Search on the basic search page of our online catalog.
There are many other ways for you to find summer entertainment at your library. Let us know how we can help you fill the long summer days ahead!
