Book Leaf Wreath
Saturday, November 21, 2015 @ Hayward Main Library
Combine your love of recycling and the printed word into one easy and satisfying project. Participants will cut, staple, and braid until everyone has something to take home and brighten their holiday atmosphere. Please bring your own wire coat hanger, scissors, stapler, chenille stems, and, optionally, a book to deconstruct (though plenty of pre-cut book parts will be provided!).
Instructor: Katie Budai is a Hayward artist who loves books, crafting, the DIY movement, and recycling.
This workshop is part of the Hayward Library's monthly DIY series where we explore using natural, recycled, and repurposed materials to create jewelry, household decor, gifts, and more. Workshops are free and open to ages 12 and up. Registration is required; register online at library.hayward-ca.gov, call 510-881-7975, or email heidi.ontiveros@hayward-ca.gov

Yes, my kids were sprawled out on the floor in the children's section. Luckily, it was pretty empty. And the light was so warming. Yes, I'm that mom.

2/90 Arc Signage is the perfect solution for changing environments. Sign sizes are designed to acccomdate standards paper sizes so it's easy for customers to print new paper inserts when information changes. This library install also uses the header insert as a way to differentiate sections of the library based on the color of the header.

Headquarters of Edwin Bailey (& Sons). E. Bailey had arrived from England as a child, spent a year aboard a ship in the Asia trade, returned possibly already with carpentry skills, opened a shop (on Lake St., where the Carnegie Library was later built), then gradually built up his business, gradually forging a local lumber empire, replete with specialized buildings, such as the Planing Mill (above right). Note these buildings proximity to the rail line (to NYC), undoubtedly aiding in business transactions, bith large and small.
Freaky Friday is the culmination of the Summer programs for the Tweens and Young Adults. They get to come to the library after hours on Friday and have pizza, games and win prizes! This year was a blast!
Staging a birthday celebration for one of Scotland’s best known authors is no small feat, but Libraries outshone themselves with fizzy wine and a gloriously large birthday cake on 27 April for Ian Rankin.
Ian said "Rebus was 'born' while I was a student in Edinburgh, during which time I haunted George IV Bridge, and especially its libraries and bookshops. It is no accident that I chose the Central Library for the climax of that first Rebus novel and it is a pleasure to make the return journey to celebrate my 50th birthday."
Almost 150 people were delighted to welcome him back to his old haunt, toast his health and sing Happy Birthday with gusto following an entertaining insight into his inspirations and progression through the Rebus volumes to his latest publications.
