During the month of March, libraries are promoting National Reading Month. Did you know that reading actually reduces stress? It also lowers heart rate, blood pressure and helps you sleep! 

Reading to your children, beginning in infancy, builds a warm and loving boundary around the act of reading. As children grow, it has been proven that the longer you read to your children, the more apt they are to become readers in their teen and adult years.

In 2010, Google Nerds actually calculated the number of books in the world. In 2016, according to Bowker, the organization responsible for keeping track of all newly assigned ISBNs in the United States, 134,021,533 books had been published.  With that many books, there is bound to be something interesting for every person in the world!

The Conway Springs City Library would love to have you come in and look at our books. We have almost 11,000 books! The most exciting part of our day is when someone walks through the door to search for something to read. 

So, please, come visit us soon!
