Remember the summer reading program is for all ages and starts Saturday!

We had a fabulous year in the library!

Today Caroline, the teen librarian, from the Owasso Branch came and told us all about the Summer Reading Program. It starts June 1st but you can get pre-registered now! Bookmarks with QR codes and information are coming home. The Summer Reading Program is available for ALL AGES from babies to adults!!

You might be familiar with our mascot, Buddy Bookworm, who attends various library events and appears on items like the Summer Reading Program medal that's awarded to children who complete the program. But did you know he got his start as a puppet?

In the late 1950s, Pinkie and Rod Jones created "The Buddy Bookworm Show" to promote literacy and the library's extensive offerings. It included skits and segments that often featured local students ... including library user Gayle Campbell, who appeared on the show during a trivia segment. “I won a book that I still have,” Campbell said. “It was published in 1958, so it was brand new when I received it. I remember that I really enjoyed reading it.”

Read the full Buddy Bookworm story in the May event guide, available at all TCCL locations and online at www.tulsalibrary.org/mylibrary.

ALL LIBRARY BOOKS ARE DUE TOMORROW! Please look around your house and your car and anywhere you might have books laying around!
