Events and Programs for November

Events and Programs for November

Please come join the Friends of Bridgton Library at the Book Shed on Saturday, November 6th from 9:00 am-noon for some great books at even better prices. All funds raised go to help the Library pay for programs and services for library users of all ages. With the proceeds of the summer book sale the Library was able to purchase 72 new nonfiction titles for youth services, including health, finance, vehicles, history, and countries around the world. Thank you, Friends, for your hard work and thank you to all those who support our book sales!

Our November reading challenge is Read Grateful. Sign up online or in-person. Earn raffle tickets for reading and for trying out some mindful activities as we move into winter. We will also be holding our annual Thankful Raffle. Earn a raffle ticket for each item you return through the month of November (remember, we never charge overdue fines, this is your chance to get a little extra reward for finding those lost items). There will be 20 winners of all ages, drawing on December 1st.

Grateful in November 2021

Grateful in November 2021

This November we will be celebrating our annual Thankful Raffle. The Library purchases small items and gift certificates from local businesses and people earn raffle tickets for each item they return in November. We will also be adding a Reading Challenge this year, where people can earn even more raffle tickets for the books, ebooks, audio books, and magazines they read.

We encourage you to practice an attitude of gratitude! Learn what gratitude is all about, practice expressing gratitude to yourself and others, and check out awesome book recommendations for all ages. Log your reading and complete activities to earn badges all month long. You can register online, pick up a paper log, or sign up for Simple Registration where we keep track of the number of books you check out from us through the month of November. Questions? Please contact us (bplreference or 207-647-2472).
