It’s a new year!
That means it’s time for a reboot. It’s time to look at what you can do to learn something new, experience something new, do something to make yourself happier, healthier. Thankfully, the Sweetwater County Library System has the resources you need to do all of these things.
Are you looking to read more this year? We’ve definitely got you covered. Our libraries have thousands of books to help you reach this goal. Stop by and check out our selection of mysteries, romances, sci-fi books and more! We have biographies and memoirs as well – something for everyone! And you can check out books without even coming into the library. The Sweetwater County Library System also offers eBooks and audiobooks that can be checked out for free on your devices. Visit our website at sweetwaterlibraries.com to find out more. If you need some extra motivation to help reach your reading goal, sign up for our Winter Reading Program. The program runs through Jan. 30. You have the opportunity to win some great prizes just for reading. You can’t beat that.
