Happy Valentine's Day, but more so, Happy Library Lovers' Day!

The month of February isn't just for lovers.  Nope.  It is for readers.  It is National Library Lovers' Month, and it hosts Library Lovers' Day, as well.  Be sure to show your love and appreciation for the institutions that house such a wealth of knowledge, the librarians who keep that information for us, and connect with your communities whether in-person or virtually!

This year's theme is: 'Make a date with your library.'

NATIONAL FAMILY LITERACY DAY

READ WITH YOUR FAMILY

Reading is vital as well as a wonderful way to bring families together.  It's a great way to spend family night while opening up conversation and discovering new topics to discuss.  And, it's FREE - you can get books from the library!

As I said in my post https://nornstriad.com/2020/08/27/national-read-a-book-day:
It has been proven that reading not only reduces stress, it increases empathy as well as intellect.  In addition, it is known to slow the natural memory loss and mental decline seen with aging as well as prevent diseases such as dementia.  Actually, it is shown to increase memory.   Reading ‘rewires’ the brain and increase communication overall, whether verbal or visual.

Here are some great books I love and think you might as well:
