We are happy to announce that the Kimball Library will reopen to the public for in-person browsing on Monday, January 25, 2021. As always, we are stocked with new and exciting materials and are looking forward to opening our doors wide again!
Our first priority
is your safety and that of the staff. Therefore, strict social distancing and
masks will be required. Take Out service will continue and contactless printing
and faxing is now an additional option. The Conference and Study Room will be
open for groups of 4 and 2 respectively. In order to preserve social
distancing, programs will continue to be virtual.
The Library will
continue to operate its full schedule: Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 8 PM
and Saturday from 10 AM to 3 PM. Returns must continue to be placed in the
drops so that they can be quarantined for 72 hours.

MINDFULNESS DURING UNCERTAINTY: Mindfulness meditation is paying
attention to the present moment, noticing what's happening around you and in
you, including thoughts and feelings, without judging them. Accepting things
the way they are, including ourselves. Join us as we discuss how to implement
the practice of Mindfulness during times of uncertainty and fear. Learn a
simple technique for including emotions in your mindfulness practice. Learning
to relate skillfully with your emotions, especially the difficult ones can help
you navigate uncertainty and cultivate self-care.
Regardless, if you
have never tried Mindfulness or are just looking for a way to jump back into
the practice, you are invited to join us. Register for your Zoom link today for
this thought-provoking event on February 18 at 6:30 PM that is sponsored by our
generous Friends of Kimball Library.
About the
instructor: Liz Korabek-Emerson is a certified mindfulness teacher,
transformational workshop leader and creative coach dedicated to helping people
become more resilient in their workplaces, homes and communities.
