Yes, that’s how many books are housed in our very own “self-serve” lending library, located on the 2nd floor of the HP Activity Center! The “plus” is because that number doesn’t include books currently in “circulation” in homes throughout our community. You’re encouraged to stop by and pick a book or two to read – no “check-out” is required. Our library is a free amenity some of our newer members may be unaware of.
In addition to Fiction and Non-fiction books and Biographies, we have quite a variety of over 130 jigsaw puzzles – from 300 to 2000 pieces – located in the center island, in two large cabinets on the right-hand side. (I warn you; they can be addictive). We also have Romance genre books in specially labeled cabinets. We also have audio books and DVD movies on the back wall below our Non-fiction books. Just check out the floor plan chart as you enter to help you find what you’re looking for.
We encourage all residents before you even think about giving away those gently used “in good condition” books, please drop them off in the designated library bins. If you enjoyed reading them, I’m sure someone else at HP will also take pleasure in them. Due to space concerns, we ask that books be published within the past ten years.
Should you have an interest in joining our dedicated group of 20+ volunteers who help keep our library organized and in tip-top shape, please let me know.
So, come take advantage of this HP “perk,” and stop by to see our extensive selections of puzzles, DVD movies, and many, many books! I promise, you won’t be disappointed!
