Kimball Library News 10/17/21

Cathie Piccolo and Lois Powers researched high and low, both online and through books and magazines for their next craft project to tackle.  Join them for their next 'Bibliocraft” class where they will show you the ins and outs to creating a Luminary for the Holidays.

In this creative and as always fun class, Cathie and Lois will provide the instructions, materials, embellishments and support for you as you craft away. Each person will receive a jar to decorate.  All Artisans start somewhere, and this craft makes a wonderful gift or holiday decor for the home.

Registration is required, and seating is limited to 10. A non-refundable materials fee of $10.00 must be paid at time of registration. Stop in at the library and register today or call for more information. Class takes place on Thursday, November 18th, at 6:00 PM.

DEVICE UPDATES: As of October 1, some users with older electronic devices were no longer able to use the Libby app or access NH Downloadable Books on those devices. This has mainly affected iPad users. The quickest way to check if an iPad is incompatible:

Open the Settings app/Tap General/Tap About/View the Software Version or Version. If the software version is 9.x or lower, the device is no longer compatible.

You can try updating the device, but if device states that the software is already up to date, there is no other way to resolve the issue as your device is too outdated.
