Clover, the Granby Library Gnome, will be traveling to the Statehouse in Boston as an advocate for our statewide summer reading program Going places @your library!

Introduction

Gnome Pattern - Many thanks to Cynthia Fordham, Woburn Public Library for sharing her Roaming Library Gnome Pattern!

Official Gnome Travel List - This is the list of libraries that are participating in "Gnomes across Massachusetts" please print it and attach it to your gnome travel log. Each time your library receives a gnome, cross your library's name off (to mark that the gnome has been there) keep it two days, then send it on. Remember each individual library will be receiving host gnomes from one library- the one before yours on the list. You will be sending your gnome, then gnomes that come to you, onto one library- the library after yours on the list. Our gnomes will travel through all regions, then back to their home library at the end of the summer. Please keep to the list and our gnomes should travel smoothly statewide!
