Library programs continue throughout the summer

The Canyon Lake Library will be open Friday and Saturday of the Memorial Day weekend and closed on Memorial Day. The website rivlib.net will be available throughout the weekend for book downloads, database use, item renewal where available and other helpful information.

The BrainFuse online tutoring site will not be available on Monday.

Toddler Story Time, Adult Book Club and tutoring will continue throughout the summer. Toddler Story Time meets on Mondays at 11 a.m. The Adult Book Club meets on the last Monday of the month at 4 p.m.

Both computer assistance and adult tutoring are available by prior arrangement. The Monday 4 p.m. tutoring is flexible and continues to be a service for specific need-to-learn computer techniques and procedures. This service is for those who choose to learn or do something which requires close attention and instruction. A portable drive such as a USB is required for saving work and tutoring users must bring material to communicate their learning needs.

The library has a supply of free voter information guides related to the upcoming primary election on June 5. Additional information may be obtained at sos.ca.gov/elections.
