The titles of have been covered so Ellinwood library patrons can Make a Blind Date with a Book.

The Ellinwood School/Community Library has become a matchmaker and reminds everyone of the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” The public is invited to stop by and make a “Blind Date with a Book.”

Here’s how it works:

Take a book home without knowing its title. Who knows ... you just might fall in love!

Read the brief descriptions on the front of the book wrappers and choose one to take home. No peeking yet!

Check out the book and don’t forget to take a “Rate the Date” bookmark and a complimentary drink.

After you’ve checked out the book, unwrap it to officially meet your date. Give the book a chance, but if things don’t work out, simply return it. No hard feelings!

Fill out your “Rate the Date” bookmark and return it with your book. Your name will be entered for a drawing. We want to hear all the details!

Blind Date will run from Feb. 6 through March 3. Please limit to one book a week.

We look forward to seeing you at Ellinwood School/Community Library!
