DL BOOK FAIR

The Dows Lane Book Fair is just around the corner. Students will visit the fair with their classes and family members are invited to attend. A schedule will be sent out through the PTSA weekly and your class parents as soon as it's complete. 
 
For families with young children, there will be a special Pre-School event on Tuesday, November 14th from 12:30-1:00pm.  Principal Deborah Mariniello will be on hand to read some of her favorite books to the children.

It will be open Wednesday evening, November 15th, from 5-8:30pm, and Friday, November 17th, from 7:30 am to 12:30 pm for any parent who would like to attend but can't make it during his or her child's scheduled time.  We are also open after school during the Book Fair until 3:00 pm

DL BIRTHDAY BOOK CLUB

​Help celebrate your child’s birthday with a unique gift to The Dows Lane Library!
 
When your child joins the Dows Lane Birthday Book Club, a book is donated to the school library with a special commemorative bookplate in your child’s honor. It’s a fantastic way to help grow our library collection and get your child excited about reading!
 
To join the Birthday Book Club, fill out the bottom of the Birthday Book Club Form and enclose your $20 donation, payable by cash or check. Around the time of your child’s birthday, we will invite him or her to come to the library to select a new book for the Birthday Book Club.
 
Parents of children with summer birthdays may select a date during the school year, such as a “half-birthday,” to honor their child. Your child will have the opportunity to choose from a wide selection of books.
 
After your child selects a birthday book, we will place a permanent bookplate in it to acknowledge your gift. Participants will have the honor of being the first to check out their special book.
