We will take immediate legal action to challenge the Biden Administration’s rule on vaccine mandates for employees of companies employing 100 or more. governor.iowa.gov/press-release/…
Wondering how our Makerspace2Go rock painting turned out? Check out the awesome job one of our students did with her rock! Next month will be origami (and maybe paper airplanes??), so be watching for details!
It's World Kindness Day! Celebrate by doing a random act of kindness for someone!
Throwback Thursday: Here's a gem of a library book from 1981! "As people become more concerned about the energy crisis, it's possible we will decide we need fewer machines, not more machines. The computer might even become extinct, like the dinosaur." (pg 98)
The first of our Makerspace2Go kits went out today. November's project is rock painting. The kit includes a rock, paint brush, up to 6 colors of paint, a sweet treat and inspirational quote. Can't wait to see what our students create!
It's time for another Throwback Thursday! Who wants to trade your earbuds for this bad boy?? Headphone and microphone all in one! And what a stylish color!
Scary books: Yea or nay?? Terrifying things that are realistic frights vs phantasmagorical creatures? Tell us your favorite scary book in the comments! Mine is Suffer the Children by John Saul. Just typing the title gives me the goosebumps!
Happy Halloween! What's your favorite candy? Personally, I can just say no to candy corn (but Reece's Peanut Butter cups ROCK in case you want to treat your favorite librarian!). Mental Floss gives us the history of candy corn in this article: mentalfloss.com/article/635117…
It's Throwback Thursday! Does anyone recognize this?!? Take a guess on what you think they might have been used for!
The library is so empty without all the kids, we decided to get a pet to keep the lonelies away. What do you think? Are we taking "crazy cat lady" a bit too far? Here's how to add an animal to your space. Share pictures of your new "pet"!! ow.ly/yjUX50BYJjH

We are constantly bombarded with news stories. Do you take the time to fact check before sharing? Here is a great tool to help discern the intent (bias) of a news story. ow.ly/8WzL50BUOhs Be media savvy and research your news!
October is National Pizza Month! Tell us what toppings are a must and which ones are a bust. Pineapple, I 'm talking about you! Lombardi's in NYC was the first pizzeria in the US. They opened in 1905. Pizzerias became popular after WWII and now almost every town has one!
We are celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month in the library! Look what new books just came in the mail today! We have a small, but growing, collection of books in Spanish and by Spanish-speaking authors. Our library catalog even translates into Spanish. Check it out!
Happy Friday! What are you reading this weekend? Sounds like Saturday is going to be cool and rainy. Perfect weather for snuggling up with a good book!
Which do you prefer, the book or the movie? Has a movie ever ruined the book for you or vice versa? Drop a comment and let us know what you loved/hated. In the meantime, check out these books that are being made into movies. youtu.be/T_md3Sx8eg4.
It's National Coffee Day! FYI: coffee comes from a shrub! The fruit is called coffee cherries and each cherry contains 2 seeds (beans). Whether you prefer cold brew, cappuccino, or just drink it black, curl up with a good book, a hot cup and enjoy the cool fall weather today!
Football player Gayle Sayers passed away last week. Learn more about his friendship with Brian Piccolo, a teammate of his with the Chicago Bears. Piccolo died at the age of 26 in 1970. We have two books that tell their story.
Love a good mystery? Check out our featured book Chase Darkness With Me by Billy Jensen. After years of reporting on unsolved murders, Mr. Jensen was fed up and decided he needed to solve them himself. To date, he has solved 10 homicides and helped locate several missing people.
Not sure how to access our library resources? Check out our How To videos on the JHS Libary YouTube channel! Learn how to log into the library catalog to reserve a book, how to research, and much more! Check it out at: ow.ly/78gR50Bv4Ek
