Haslet opens library

twistedlibrarian writes “HASLET – Alex Varner, 7, watched intently while the woman behind the library desk processed the two hardcover books he had placed on the counter.

He had waited a long time for the Haslet Public Library to open so he could check out Christmas in Camelot, the 29th volume in a series of children’s books, his mother Sandra Varner said.

“It was the only Magic Tree House book that I had left to read,” Alex said joyfully as he scooped up the books and a paper library card with his handwritten name on it.

Alex was the first customer to check out materials from the Haslet Public Library, which debuted Saturday morning.
