School visits resume; trustees discuss summer programming and outreach

The Library Director told trustees that James Faulkner Elementary School (JFES) visits have resumed, with four Friday visits scheduled before the end of the school year and two already completed. The board expects these visits to increase circulation as students use library services.

Program updates included a functional fitness class led by Mike with four to five regular attendees and a "Fascinating Trash" event scheduled for Thursday after town meeting. Trustees discussed adapting the new "Reading with Dragons" time-based card game for different reading levels, adding guidance to the website, and forming a small outreach group to address engagement barriers and improve family participation in summer reading activities.
