New to our library's collection is the heart-pounding thriller, 'Love, Mom' by Iliana Xander.

It's currently rated 4.18/5 on Goodreads; check it out if you're a fan of fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat fiction!

Last weekend the Friends of the Vinton Public Library handed out treats during the Vinton Parks & Recreation Department Halloween Downtown Parade. A big thank you to VPRD for organizing such a fun event for our community, and to the Friends of the Vinton Public Library for all you do to promote our library!

We are here for you at the Vinton Public Library!

Reading one book at a time beat out several books at once during our last 'This or That' challenge; now we're headed into deep waters!

Tell us, are you decorating for winter holidays now, or do you decorate for Thanksgiving first?

Today I received a phone call asking if we were permanently closed; the caller had asked Siri what the hours were for the Vinton Public Library and Siri listed our library as permanently closed. This is due to an incorrect listing in Apple Maps. I have corrected this particular issue several times over the past year, yet it seems to keep popping up.

A great reminder to get the facts and report misinformation. If you see something online that lists our library as permanently closed, or any other misinformation about the Vinton Public Library, please email a screenshot to library@vintonia.gov so that I can troubleshoot.

You can always find our current hours on our Facebook page and our library website at www.vinton.lib.ia.us.

Thank you,

Kelly Henkle, Library Director

Last week there was plenty of Halloween fun happening for kids at the library! While some structures were stronger than others, and some candy may have been used for nibbling rather than building, smiles ruled the day!
