For those of us who like to read, summertime usually means reading time, whether it be at the beach, by a lake or on your own front porch. Local readers are fortunate to have so many ways to secure books and audiobooks. Scarsdale has a beautiful new library with plenty of books on display and many comfortable spots to sit and enjoy them. Library card holders can get free e-books and audio books via the library app LIBBY, making many titles available without leaving home.
