Bethlehem Public Library news: Library board selects officers

Spotlight Newsroom by Spotlight Newsroom

Reading Time: 3 mins read

At their Monday, July 11, organizational board meeting, the Bethlehem Public Library board of trustees approved the following 2022-23 slate of officers:

• Mark Kissinger,

president

• Michelle Walsh,
vice president

• Caroline Brancatella, secretary

• Sharon Whiting,
board treasurer

• Lisa Scoons,
UHLS board representative

At the same meeting, newly elected trustee Sarah Patterson was sworn in. Board meetings are generally held the second Monday of every month at 6 p.m. and are open to the public. Meetings are also broadcast live and archived on the library’s YouTube channel.

Summer hours

Please note, the library is closed Sundays in July and August. You can access the library catalog and other library services online anytime at www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org.

For the month of August, the library will also be closed for in-person use on Friday evenings from 6-9 p.m. Curbside pickup will be available, however, from 6-8:30 p.m.

Bollywood dancing for tweens, teens

Last month we held a Bollywood dancing program just for kids, but why should they have all the fun? On Saturday, July 30, at 11 a.m. instructors from Narthanalaya School of Arts will return for a session just for tweens and teens!

Bollywood dancing combines a colorful, theatrical style with unique gestures and movements that are used to tell a story through dance. It blends traditional Indian dance with more modern influences like jazz and hip-hop.

Students ages 10-16 are invited to learn more about this tradition with a demonstration by Narthanalaya School of Arts, followed by instruction and a brief performance.

Visit our online calendar at bethlehem.librarycalendar.com to sign up.

Go on a museum road trip

Are you planning a trip to the Finger Lakes this summer? Don’t forget to borrow our newest museum pass, which gets you free admission to the world-renowned Corning Museum of Glass.

We’ve also got dozens of great passes to museums and cultural centers closer to home, like Historic Cherry Hill, the USS Slater, Crailo State Historic Site and more. Our museum passes are available on a first-come basis are not requestable or renewable. Visit our website at www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org to see what’s available.

Are you up for the challenge?

Summer reading is going strong, and it’s not too late to sign up! Registration for the 2022 Summer Reading Challenge is happening now and open to all ages. Once you sign up, you can track your progress through challenge cards for a chance to earn some great prizes. Visit www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org/summer-reading-2022 to get started.

No judgment;
no fines

The library no longer charges fines for overdue books and other media. Replacement fees and charges for lost or damaged items still apply, and fines of $1 per day for Library of Things items and ILL, as well as $5 per day for museum passes and Wi-Fi hotspots, will remain.
