Kimball Library News 5/11/10

Take advantage of free films! We are showing the last ‘4th Saturday Flick’ until summer’s end. (Not to worry, we have other free film days planned.) We are featuring cute, fast-driving rodents on the big screen on Saturday, May 22nd, starting at 10:30am. Ages 10 and up may stay unattended, ages 6-9 may stay unattended if they’ve registered and been released, and ages 5 and under may stay with a legal-aged caretaker.

Take advantage of our June book discussions. Following the May discussion for each particular group the June discussion book will then be available for the asking. Do plan ahead to get your copy if you don’t attend the May meeting. Listed below are the titles to chew on.

Tweens (grades 6-8) meet on Wednesday, June 2, at 6:30pm to discuss ‘The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod: Eighth Grade Bites’ by Heather Brewer.

Teens (grades 9-12) meet on Wednesday, June 9, at 6:30pm to discuss ‘Madapple’ by Christina Meldrum.

Evening Adults meet on Tuesday, June 15, at 6pm to discuss ‘Fortune’s Rocks’ by Anita Shreve.

Morning Adults meet on Wednesday, June 23, at 10:15am to discuss ‘Girl in a Blue Dress’ by Gaynor Arnold.

Take advantage of the ‘Food, Fun and Folklore-Tasting Party’ being hosted on Thursday, June 10, from 6:30-8pm. Sample chilled soups, breads, spreads and beverages made from the treasures of a local herb garden. You’ll also be given answers to some burning questions such as ‘What did the Bostonians drink after their tea was thrown into the Bay?’ or ‘What did great-grandma give to a fussy toddler?’ Registration is required and the prediction is that if you hesitate you will miss out. Hop online now and enter your name on the calendar or give us a call and we’ll do it for you. This presentation will be by Brenda Weber and is sponsored by the Friends of the Library.

Take advantage of the extra days for two day loans over the Memorial Day weekend (Saturday, May 29 through Monday, May 31.) Two day loan items checked out on Thursday the 27th will not be due back until June 1. Stock up beginning the 27th.
