What's Happening At The Library?

The library should be your destination this summer!

Most Popular Children's Fiction: The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan. Demigod Percy Jackson, still with no memory, and his new friends from Camp Jupiter, Hazel and Frank, go on a quest to free Death, but their bigger task is to unite the Greek and Roman camps so that the Prophecy of Seven can be fulfilled.

Get into reading this season: Take a look at all of the fun activities and events the Amherst Town Library has planned for their Kids, teens, parents and families have plenty of options for fun and learning this summer, don't miss out.

Get in the games! The London Olympics are almost here! Take a look at our July display and catch up on some Olympic history, read a novel that takes place in London, or watch Chariots of Fire.  And don’t forget to participate in their graph of which Olympic sports you participate in.
