Absence DOES make the heart grow fonder, and we really
couldn’t miss you more, but while we're sad we can't see you in person, we can
still meet up virtually. Videos can be found on our new YouTube channel. Here
is the link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPMxC6H0BDxmtvdwqE_WXIw/
*All ages have been having fun viewing our Kimball Library YouTube
videos! They are fun & educational and a great way to stay connected to
your Kimball Library friends.
GET STARTED FROM HOME RESEARCHING YOUR FAMILY TREE: Researching Your Family
Tree has started meeting through email.
There are 2 spots still open to join this program. These slots are being
offered to Kimball Patron Card Holders.
This class
is for beginners only. You will need to have computer access as we meet through
email and view videos, resources, etc... At a later date, (fingers crossed for
the middle of August), the group will continue to meet in person for 6 sessions
on Wednesdays from 1:00 - 3:00. There is a cost of $30.00 per Atkinson Resident
which you can pay by phone using a credit card or ask about other payment
options. Just call the library at 603-362-5234. For more information email:

COLLEGE ADMISSIONS IN THE AGE OF CORONAVIRUS: A popular program here
at Kimball Library has gone online. Nancy Steenson will host College Admissions
in the Age of Coronavirus over Zoom. This resource is geared to 8th-11th
graders and/or their parents. In addition to presenting ways to stand out in
the college admissions process, Nancy will be discussing how colleges will be
evaluating students in this new and changing landscape. Nancy’s goal is to “help
students and parents adapt to this new reality”. The Zoom conference is free;
you simply need to email Nancy for access through her website at: https://www.steensoncollegecoach.com/events
