What’s Happening at the Dobson Community Public Library

Each October, National Book Month allows us to celebrate and expand our love of reading. As the warm temperatures start to leave us for the winter, it’s the perfect time to put on some cozy slippers, have a cup of tea (or wine) and curl up on the couch with a good book. It’s easy to get caught up in the busyness of everyday life and forget to enjoy the little things. Many of us put our relaxing hobbies like reading on the backburner, but this month, pick up a few new books and make time to read them.

It’s a great hobby to get into!

Pick up your favorite books and make some time to read them. Get to any new books you have been meaning to read. Use #NationalBookMonth to post on social media.
