Hillcrest HS IMC Celebrates National Library Week with Special Guest

Author Dr. Stephanie Massey was the special guest speaker for Family Reading Night

Recently, the Hillcrest IMC/Library joined libraries in schools, campuses and communities nationwide in celebrating the many ways libraries are transforming their communities every day through the services and invaluable expertise they offer.

First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association (ALA) and libraries across the country each April.

To kick off National Library Week, the Hillcrest IMC hosted guest author Dr. Stephanie Massey at their spring Family Reading Night. Dr. Massey wrote the book, Enjoying Sunday Morning Breakfast with Mommy’s Awesome Tales. Guests learned about Dr. Massey's writing inspiration, editing tasks, illustration concerns and publishing process. Signed copies of Massey's book were raffled off.
