Each participant discusses a favorite book.

Some of the titles we’ve read in recent months and years include:  Room, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Tinkers, Let the Great World Spin, Cutting for Stone, and Welcome to the Goon Squad.

You can take a look by following the link to the left.  (The first thing you’ll notice is that our collection is no longer divided between Adult and Children.  Everything’s in one collection.)  You can log onto your own record by clicking on “My Items” and then logging into your patron information.  To log in you will use your last name and patron ID number (on your card).  Call if you don’t know your number or if you have any problems at all!

You can now both renew and reserve online.   If, after searching for a title you find it’s checked out, scroll down to “Location information ” and there you will find the item’s due date.  Reserve it there.   After reserving, go back to My Items and you will see where you are on the reserve list.

Story times are divided into 4- or 5-week sessions with a one-week break in between (usually to accommodate a holiday or school vacation period). Pre-registration is required for each session. You may join after a session has begun if there is space available.
