Gone to Potter

Have you known for years the identity of the Half-Blood Prince, and even how the entire epic tale of Harry Potter ends -- but still can’t wait to see the big-screen version of the sixth book hit movie theaters next week? Relax, Muggle. In honor of the July 15 release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the Rangeview Library District is hosting Pottermania! at the Commerce City Branch Library, 7185 Monaco Street in Commerce City. “Harry Potter is so popular in our libraries,” notes communications director Steve Hansen. In other words, the library is just trying to give Potter his due.
