Library Chit Chat - 23 June 2009

Last modified: June 23, 2009 - 9:30 AM

75,000 Loans – Can We Do It?

Library Staff have set the challenge to reach 75,000 loans by the end of June. At the time of writing my Chit Chat (Friday morning) we were up to 73,943 loans and by the time you read this I think we will be very close to the 75,000 loans.

Remember, there is a prize for the person that borrows our 75,000th item. My suggestion would be to get to the Library quickly because we are very close!

Win a USB Wristband (1 GB)

Download from our website www.strl.nsw.gov.au the entry form for Southern Tablelands Regional Library’s druginfo @ your library quiz. Answer 2 simple questions and you could be in the draw to win one a 1GB USB Wristband (like a Memory Stick – but shaped like a wristband!).

Entry forms are also available at the Library and answers can be discovered on the website www.druginfo.sl.nsw.gov.au or using the collection of pamphlets available at the Library. The completed quiz should be handed back to Library Staff by the end of June.

Mocktail Party

This week is Drug Action Week and the theme message is – ‘Alcohol is a drug– TOO!’

The aim is to increase awareness about the harm caused by the misuse of alcohol and other drugs – with a focus on alcohol-related matters.

Alcohol is the most commonly used drug in Australia and its misuse continues to cause significant harm and enormous cost to the community.

Don’t miss Yass Library’s Mocktail Party being held on Thursday 25
th June from 5pm to 6pm. Mocktails are non-alcoholic drinks and everyone aged 13 and over are invited to the Library to try some.

Some Mocktail recipes to try:

Cinderella

30mls lemon juice
30mls orange juice
30mls pineapple juice
60mls soda water
Dash red cordial

Mix all juices and pour over ice. Add soda water and red cordial. Garnish with a slice of orange.
