As a matter of fact, we DO have book clubs! Besides the ever popular Pizza & Pages program at the middle school & CIS, we also have a book club for homeschooled teens & tweens PLUS a brand new book club just for high school students called SWEET READS. So, whether you are a homeschooler or a high schooler click this link for BOOK_CLUB_SIGN_UP !

Ever wonder what new dvd's, books, graphic novels & cd's the library has gotten? Now there is a way you can find out. We have these things called Featured Lists that will automatically show the newest additions to certain sections of our collection. Just visit http://www.wadsworthlibrary.com/main/about_us.cfm?page_id=143 and then open up the list you want to see to find out what's new - it's an easy way to see what the latest volume of Bleach we have in or if we have the new cd's by your favorite bands.

Check out the link to the LOFT MySpace to view some cool pictures and video clips from the concert in the courtyard on 5/31 featuring the Common Trade, With Eyes Wide Shut and Hayden Calling.

What better way to celebrate making it through another nasty, gloomy winter than by acting like a bunch of April Fools? Our Teen Advisory Board ushered in Spring by enjoying some stupid fun like Duck Duck Grey Duck, Toilet Paper Mummies (Fastest Mummy pictured), and the TP war to end all TP wars. Check out the LOFT MySpace to see a bunch more pics from the party!

OMG! I am in AWE of the teens of Wadsworth! We had 16 folks compete in the Food Fear Factor contest, and every one of them is a braver soul than I. There were 6 culinary challenges our contestants had to eat, from pearl onions rolled in wasabi powder to chipotle peppers smothered in chile relish, and many teens made it through several rounds. Only one competitor, however, was able to finish our Breakfast of Champions Master Challenge: a bowl of Raisin Bran with Snails & Anchovies. That young man is our Food Fear Factor Champion of 2008; all hail the iron stomach of Jamal Starcher!
