Mineola Memorial Library Notes

It’s here! It’s Restaurant Week in Mineola. Community helping community. This week, Feb. 12-18, participating local restaurants will be offering specials that will benefit the library. Origin Bank and Mineola Community Bank are sponsors of the event.

To get a list of participating restaurants and find out what they are offering, please visit 2023 Mineola Restaurant Week event on Facebook. This is the week to sample some of the fine fare available in Mineola and to help the library at the same time. Proceeds from this event will go toward children’s programs offered by the library.

Did you know you can write a review about a book you have checked out at the library? Visit our website mineolalibrary.com. Log into your account (the log in is about the middle of the page). To log in, you will need your library card number and your password. Find your book in the card catalog, click on it to open the record, then click on the ‘write a review” tab located about the middle of the record. You can leave your name or “handle” and rate the book and you can write a review. Once the review is approved, it will be available for others to read to help them find their next great read.

We have some tax forms available at the library. For what we don’t have, you can go to irs.gov and select the form you need and print it off. The staff will be happy to help you get to the website and print your selection. They are not tax professionals and cannot tell you if you chose the correct form. Tax help is available at the Lillie Russell Memorial Library in Lindale and you can call 903-882-1900 for details about this service. Appointments are required.

Toddler Story Time continues on Tuesdays at 9 a.m. for 18 month to 3-year olds with a parent/caregiver and includes a story, activity and play time to learn social skills and for adults to converse. Wednesday mornings at 10 a.m. are for the preschool children ages 3, 4 and 5 with parent/caregiver and have several stories, related activity and sometimes an action song.

The Mineola Memorial Library is a 501(c)3 non-profit and your donations may be tax-deductible.

We have received donations from Origin Bank, Mineola Community Bank, Janice Wisner and some anonymous friends. We truly do appreciate your donations.

Enjoy Restaurant Week!
