Sign-up is now going on for our summer reading program, “Catch the Reading Bug”.  This program is for the entire family. Each person can earn a reward each week for reading twenty minutes a day. Prizes will be awarded at the end of summer for each age category reading the most. Plus those who complete the program and turn in their calendars will be invited to our closing outdoor activity.  Come join the fun and watch for more fun programs throughout the summer.

Hyrum Library is now offering Playaway – the first self-playing digital audio book.  Half the size of a deck of cards, Playaway is the simplest way to listen to a book on the go and,  with no tapes or CDs, can hold as little as two or as much as eighty hours of content on each unit.  Using clearly marked buttons, Playaway gives listeners the ability to move back and forth within or between chapters and alter the speed of a narrator’s voice.  It even has an automatic bookmark feature that remembers where you left off.  Additionally, each Playaway weighs only two ounces and has a universal headphone jack that works with almost any type of headphone or mobility accessory.

Playaway is the simplest way to listen to digital content on the go.  It comes with the audio content already pre-loaded on it and a battery to make it play.  Simply plug in earbuds and enjoy!
