July is National Ice Cream Month!

Back in 1984, President Ronald Reagan declared the month of July as National Ice Cream Month. He had also named the third Sunday in July to be National Ice Cream Day. (This year, it falls on Sunday, July 15.) In the proclamation he signed on July 9, 1984, he wrote: “I call upon the people of the United States to observe these events with appropriate ceremonies and activities.” Presumably, he had meant for Americans to go out and eat ice cream… but because we’re a library, we’ll celebrate by highlighting several books on the topic!
Books/eBooks
Ice Cream: A Global History Of Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Cream Making The Ice Cream Maker: An Inspiring Tale About Making Quality the Key Ingredient in Everything You Do

…Of course, you’re free to celebrate in the traditional way: by indulging in some ice cream! Just please refrain from bringing the frozen dessert into the library (…unless you’re treating the librarians!).
If you’re having difficulties accessing the periodicals or e-books, check out the library’s instructions on accessing electronic resources from home. If you’re still having trouble, don’t hesitate to ask a librarian!
