On April 26th and 28th, third graders from Fuller Elementary got a tour of Putnam District Library. Librarians Shauna Swantek and Emily Mater explained the basic history of the library as well as the layout of the different sections. Basic information was given about the Dewey decimal system and how it is used in Putnam's nonfiction sections. Kids also got a chance to go upstairs and were fascinated by some of the local history artifacts located up there. Mrs. Bross pointed out a photo of a homestead from the 1830s as an example of the Michigan History the third graders are learning this year. The librarians also explained how all M.V. students are eligible to have a PDL library card. They encouraged kids to bring their parents down and get them signed up.
