National Poetry Month


April is National Poetry Month, and Bernardsville Public Library has been busy celebrating the art of verse all month. A number of New Jersey and local poets (including Sondra Gash, Susan Jackson and Dorothy Ryan) have given readings in the Community Room. In addition, a charming selection from the library's poetry collection has been included in our book display, entitled "Poetreats", which can be found in the nonfiction wing atop the Oversize Book area.Look there for an interesting array of poems to suit your every mood. Please feel free to borrow any of these poetry books. For information about New Jersey poets, visit the Academy of American Poets Web site at http://www.poets.org/state.php/varState/NJ.
