Advanced Battle of the Books was held last Friday at the Sachem Public Library. Teams from 11 Suffolk County Libraries competed, displaying their knowledge of three books: Black and White by Paul Volponi, Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevon and Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie by David Lubar. The winning team, the Schnoopers, came from the Harborfields Library, and best costume was won by the Biblios from East Hampton.

Thanks to members of the Patchogue-Medford team, the Machine, who did a great job representing our library - Samantha, Brianna, Tiffany, Hannah, Shira, Daniel, Deanna, Hannah and William!!!!
