month devoted to books? It also means it's time for the Roseville Public

Community's
thrive @ your library. The winning bookmarks will be printed in color and

Reading 101

Parents who would like to help their teen develop or enhance
reading skills might like to encourage the use of
audiobooks combined with printed text. Whether it's due to
learning disabilities such as dyxlexia or just a reluctant
reader, listening to an audiobook in conjunction with the
written text can enhance the reading experience. It can help
improve reading and comprehension skills as well as strengthen
spelling skills and increase the vocabulary.

as well as a list of recommendations from our youth librarian.

Did You Know?
The library has games for the Nintendo Wii and Playstation 2
that can be checked out? You are limited to one game at a time,
and the check-out period is for one week. You can not put a hold
on the games through the library catalog. It's a small
collection -- but it's good!
