IT''S SCRABBLE TIME
Stop in the Library during the month of March and you could win a game of Scrabble. Pick your letters, place your word on our supersize game board and you just might win. Here are the details and the rules.
OFFICIAL RULES
- Players must use the official Scrabble game board and tiles provided.
- Only one entry per person, per game. Games will last as long as tiles are available. When tiles run out, a new game will start. We will announce new games and winners on social media.

- Valid words must be at least three letters long and must be found in a standard English dictionary. Proper nouns, abbreviations, obscene speech, and acronyms are NOT PERMITTED and will be removed from the board.
- Points are awarded based on the value of each letter tile and any special squares on the game board that are occupied by the word.
