Hello all,
November is a wonderful time of year. We can take time to pause to reflect on what we are grateful for, consider how we might help others, and gather with our friends and family.
I want to take a moment to thank some of the volunteers who help to strengthen our library community.
Students give back to the library in many ways throughout the year. In November, students from Ramapo High School's Interact Club will once again come to the library to read to and play with younger students--this is a wonderful annual tradition! We also have students leading a Dungeons and Dragons club as well as a Public Speaking Club. Check out the details below.
I would also like to thank The Friends of the Wyckoff Library who operate our ongoing book sale, lead a monthly book club (here's a list of what they've read over the years) and deliver books to residents at Christian Health Care. Additionally, the Friends purchase museum passes that Wyckoff residents can borrow for free, as well as items in our library of things. The Friends annual holiday concert will be held on Sunday, December 6th and is perfect for people of all ages.
We are also fortunate to have approximately twenty adults who volunteer as ESL tutors, working with other adults to improve their English language skills. In November we are launching a weekly ESL Conversation Group.
Finally, I want to thank you for engaging with the library, the collection and our awesome staff. We are so grateful that you value the library.
We hope to see you soon! 🍂
Laura Leonard
Library Director
