The Archer Public Library is excited to announce an update to the e-book services provided through the E-Read Texas Program at the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. Starting October 1st, we will transition from the e-book platform SimplyE to the new e-book platform Boundless. This change will not affect Libby. Boundless offers many new features, including reading achievement badges, larger checkout limits, and social sharing features. With Boundless and Libby, library patrons can check out e-books and audiobooks for free, enabling them to enjoy the library on the go, adjust the font size of their favorite books with a touch, or listen to books while multitasking. Come by the library if you'd like help setting up or using Boundless or Libby; we're always happy to help! ************** Samantha Casey is a school librarian who loves her job, the kids, and her school family with passion and joy for living.

His whole life has been spent abroad, and he is the proverbial rolling stone: happiest when off on his next adventure, zero desire to settle down. But when his grandmother passes away, her last words to him are find where you belong. She also drops a bombshell, telling him the name of the father he never knew—and where to find him.

Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found.

Hughes faced obstacles in her life, but became the first woman appointed as a federal judge in Texas and also became a nationally- known figure amidst a national tragedy.
