For this week's #WayBackWednesday we'd like to share an image of the Bluebird Theatre that was located at 620 E. Broad. This picture was taken in 1929, only a year before it closed its doors (it later reopened as the Grand Theatre).

Our #weekendread today is brought to you by Nico at our West End Branch. He just checked "Ink Blood Sister Scribe” by Emma Törzs and says "Magic, ancient and rare books, and the secrets held within them is on the menu with this book and I can’t wait to dig in!”

Have you met Ms. April at our Hull Street Branch. She's the Youth Services Associate there and gives one awesome storytime! Bonus: Ms. April will be offering weekend storytimes starting in the fall which is great for working parents and caregivers.
