There are two exciting virtual programs coming up that you will want to register for!
UNDERSTANDING
YOUR CAT WITH DR. RACHEL GELLER (ZOOM): Author Rachel S.
Geller will deliver a presentation on Wednesday, September 14th from
6-7 PM based on her book, ‘Saving the World, One Cat at a Time: What I Know
About Cats - And Why You Should Know It’, in this Zoom webinar.
Dubbed the "Cat Whisperer," Dr. Rachel
Geller will explain common cat behavior problems encountered by owners,
followed by a Q&A, so bring your questions for this expert's advice.
Whether the cat in question is avoiding the litterbox, acting hostile toward
another cat in the same household, having separation anxiety, or scratching the
furniture, Dr. Geller has easy-to-implement solutions and answers based on her
lifelong understanding of cats and their behavior. Dr. Geller will also offer
advice on how to choose the perfect cat for your household and integrate your new
cat successfully into your family.
Dr. Geller is a certified Cat Behavior and Retention
Specialist through the Humane Society and a certified Humane Education
Specialist through the Academy of Prosocial Learning. She is currently a cat
behaviorist/consultant for The Cat Connection, Here Today Adopted Tomorrow
Animal Sanctuary and Baypath Humane Society, and provides cat behavior help
both locally and throughout the country to her clients including cat owners and
shelters.

INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM & YOU -- A
BANNED BOOKS WEEK WEBINAR (ZOOM): Book bans are on the rise across the

about why intellectual freedom is important and what you can do to support
libraries, library workers, and free expression during these challenging times.
Presented by Martin Garnar, PhD, director of the Amherst College Library, chair
of the American Library Association's (ALA) Intellectual Freedom Committee, and
editor of the 10th edition of the Intellectual Freedom Manual.

These above Zoom events are sponsored by the Tewksbury Public Library
and presented in collaboration with libraries throughout the Merrimack Valley
and the Kimball Library.
EVENING BOOK DISCUSSION IS BACK: After
a long pause due to Covid, the Evening Book Club is reforming! Join us at the
Library on Tuesday, September 20th at 6 PM for an organizational meeting. We’ll
discuss how members would like to structure the club and pick some titles. All
are welcome!
KINDERGARTEN CLUB: This popular
club is back for the fall on Mondays at 3:30 PM.
This class is designed to be highly engaging for kindergarten aged children.
Just like a typical storytime, we will read some books, but we will also play
games that will build on important skills such as listening, vocabulary, and
socialization. We may even have an experiment or other STEAM activities.
Children may take the bus from Atkinson Academy to the Library if parents
make arrangements with Pick-up Patrol. (The Library is not taking
responsibility for the transportation, we are only letting you know that there
is a bus that stops here.) Please pack them a snack that they can have before
3:30.
NOTE: Parents MUST let the Library know of any changes to the drop off/pick
up routine OR if their child is not attending the class.
