Our Library's Best Friends

Have you enjoyed a program or the services at the library?  Thank the Friends of the Library!  Or better yet, join the Friends of the Library!  So much of what we are able to do here is because of the effort of the Friends of the Bear Creek Library.  Do you use our library, but you’re not sure what programs the Friends benefit?  Click the video to see a small sample of the things we are able to do, thanks to our Friends!

Volunteering for the Summer Reading Program

Schools almost out, the weather is getting warmer (kind of) and the librarians are busy planning.  You know what that means... It's almost time for the Summer Reading Program.  This summer, as always, there are many opportunities to volunteer.  In addition to the shelving and other year round volunteer jobs, we need help with programs.  If you are interested give us a call at 281-550-0885 and ask for any of the librarians.  

Mother, Dearest Mother!

M is for Mother, most Marvelous mother to me
O is for the One and Only good thing that ever happened to me
T is for the Tender love she’s given me since birth
H is for the Heaven that all mothers represent on earth
E is for an Exceptional lady, who else can that be
R is for the Reassuring comfort only mama can bring to me

I was taught this song in my elementary school and I have never forgotten it ever since even though I no longer have a clue that who wrote or sang this song but the words will never cease to warm my heart.
