LIBRARY TO OFFER PRIZES TO FACEBOOK FANS

Facebook members will have a new incentive to “fan” the Tompkins County Public Library beginning next month—regular prize giveaways.

In celebration of the 2010 Community Read of Philip K. Dick’s “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?,” the Library will be promoting a number of contests on its Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/tcplny.

The contests begin July 30 with the “Where are you reading?” challenge. Participants are encouraged to submit a picture of themselves taken in a creative locale while reading a copy of the Community Read. The “fan” who submits the most creative photo before August 12 will win a $50 gift certificate to Buffalo Street Books.

Additional contests will be held regularly through the month of September, so visit the Library’s page often for information. The contests are free and open to TCPL’s Facebook “fans” of all ages.

For more information about the contests or the Community Read, contact Carrie Wheeler-Carmenatty at (607) 272-4557 extension 248.

The 2010 Community Read has been made possible by the Brooks Family Foundation and Cornell University.
