The Watauga County Public Library, located at 140 Queen
St. in downtown Boone, announces the upcoming Winter Reading Program.
Each winter season, the library invites all community members
and visitors to battle the cold and snowy weather by curling up
with a selection of good books and sharing their reviews, reflections
and recommendations with other readers.
This year’s program will run from Jan. 26 to March 21 (inclusive).
Participants are asked to choose books and then offer ratings
and recommendations, which will be shared with other readers in
a special display area in the library’s entranceway. A selection
of seasonally appropriate books and books-on-CD will also be available
in the display for quick check-out.
Area merchants and other businesses and service providers are
cordially asked and invited to participate by donating prizes
to be awarded to winter reading participants.
Prizes, which have already been generously donated and will be
awarded, include gift certificates from Marble Slab Creamery and
Earth Fare, skiing and ice-skating passes from Appalachian Ski
Mountain and more.

Public Library at (828) 264-8784.
