Read Across McKinney

	The Read Across McKinney Steering Committee wishes to identify local book clubs in order to encourage them to read The Heretic's Daughter in conjunction with the Read Across McKinney events planned for March/April 2011. Local book clubs are asked to contact Read Across McKinney at mckinneylibrary@mckinneytexas.org and leave contact information in order to receive information.

The McKinney Public Library system has opened the John and Judy Gay Library, 6861 W. Eldorado Parkway. The City of McKinney is thrilled to be opening a new facility during difficult economic times, however, McKinney’s second library will initially open with storefront service. Patrons will have the opportunity to check out books, DVDs, CDs and all of the materials they are used to in a library. Additionally, there will be a self-service automated computer lab. However, regular programs, book clubs, meeting room rentals, and more cannot be offered at this time due to the limited number of staff. Plans are in place to incorporate these elements into the library as soon as funds are available. The Roy and Helen Hall Memorial Library near historic downtown McKinney will continue to offer its full lineup of programs and activities.
