from Santa Maria Public Library
Where else but at the Santa Maria Public Library can you get a nice, hot beverage for those icy cold months? Here we have our famous "Starbooks" Coffee Cart, serving toasty beverages to warm your insides. Our friendly staff is always ready to take your order. Cuddle up to one of our Classic Brews on the board like: A Tale of Two Lattes, Lord of the Chai(s), To Kill a Macchiato, and our most famous...Of Mice and Mocha. For those warm summer days, we serve up refreshing smoothies like: Green Apple or Strawberry Blasts. Iced blended cofees are sure to hit the spot. Scones, doughnuts and bagels are great to top off your drink. Be sure to browse Shepard Hall to see local artists' paintings and drawings. So remember, take your next coffee break with us at Star "Books"!

Judge comments:
Great staging that nicely upturns a book cart’s basic purpose by bringing patrons to where the books are. (We’re sure this would be Dewey’s favorite.) Sadly the winners will be unable to buy coffee with their prize, a $50 gift certificate to the Unshelved Store.
