This month's theme is Rocks and Minerals. We will be investigating the properties of different rocks with hands-on experiments. Please register.

Get help with individual tech questions. You can ask any technological question and/or bring in a device with which you need help. You will be ably assisted by our techie, Josiah. Call to reserve a half hour time slot, or drop in.

Saturday, October 20, 11:30-12:30pm: Fall Recipe Swap and Potluck
Bring in your favorite fall recipe, the one that makes your house smell so good, the one that always reminds you of crisp mornings and warm sweaters. We can make copies of recipes here at the library to share with others. And, if you are able, bring in a dish to share and we will host a potluck style meal at the library for lunch. (We kindly ask that you avoid nuts/nut products.) We also encourage bringing your own plate-ware for a no-waste meal.
