Hoopla On Tap At Mentone Library
MENTONE — Bell Memorial Public Library is having a book sale in its main lobby, with single titles just $.10 each or 15 books for $1. The library invites patrons to attend story hour every Friday at 10 a.m. During story hour, children listen to a story, sing songs and make a craft.
Hoopla is a digital media service that allows patrons to borrow movies, music, audiobooks, ebooks, comics and TV shows to enjoy on their computer, tablet, or phone. With no waiting, titles can be streamed immediately or downloaded to phones or tablets for offline enjoyment later. Titles cannot be downloaded to computers.
More information is available from any staff member.
For fitness lovers, Zumba and Yoga are held every Wednesday evening. Zumba begins at 5:30 p.m. and Yoga begins at 6:45 p.m. For more information, please contact Eva Mudd at (574) 253-5593 or [email protected]. Patrons can also join her Facebook group “Eva’s Zumba and Yoga Community Classes.”
