Beloit Memorial High School National Honor Society students have been rounding up books and shelves to help boost early literacy. Student Gloria Heiss and fellow students will be hosting a book giveaway event from noon - 1 p.m. on May 11 at the Beloit Public Library.

Walk into the Beloit Public Library and you're greeted by the smell of freshly ground coffee and baked bread.Turn right, and you'll hit the Blender Cafe, the Stateline Area's only library restaurant with a twist: it's run by students.

Parents looking to keep their kids challenged this summer might want to consider sending them to one of CareerTek’s many free academies.
