How to Stay

Young the First

100 Years!

Beacon of Light Family Chiropractic will be

hosting a “stress free day” at both the Pineville and

Middlesboro Libraries. The purpose of this

program is to educate the public on the importance

of taking care of their spine. Keeping our spine

aligned is the key to better health and living.

Pineville: Friday, September 7th, 10:00 - 2:00

Middlesboro: Thursday, September 20th Two sessions: 10:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.

They will provide snacks and everyone in attendance

will receive a free spinal screening.

Changes after Inventory

The staff at the Middlesboro Library had a busy

week in August during their annual Inventory!

Several changes need to be mentioned:

1. All Juvenile and Young Adult NON-FICTION

were separated from the adult books, and now

have their own shelves near the J & YA Fiction!

Graphic novels have their own spot as well!

2. ADULT NEW BOOKS (Fiction and Non-Fiction)

have been moved from their previous location

near the audio books, to the new shelves next to

the magazines and periodicals!

(More Inventory Pictures…pg. 7)

Check out some of the new programs

for children and youth on Page 4

Good Reads!! Good News!!
