 The Kimball Library Survey will soon appear on the website and in your mailbox. Stay on the lookout! Thank you in advance for your participation.

EVENING BOOK GROUP: It’s time to ‘fall’ in love with the Evening Book Discussion group. They will be meeting at the Library on Tuesday, October 18th, at 6 PM to discuss ‘The Ancestor’ by Danielle Trussoni.

From the New York Times, USA Today, and internationally bestselling author of the Angelology series comes a bewitching gothic novel of suspense that plunges readers into a world of dark family secrets, the mysteries of human genetics, and the burden of family inheritance.

Books are available at the main circulation desk and we’d welcome you to register your intention to join us!

WRITE IT OUT: Children in grades 3-6 are invited to ‘Write it Out!’ with us on Wednesday, October 19th, at 6 PM. We’ll start off with a prompt or two to read to the class and then free write. This a great chance to explore your creative side and have encouragement from your peers. Miss Katie is looking for kids with big imaginations! Invite your friends to sign up with you. Don’t delay– register now!

IMN: (INTERACTIVE MOVIE NIGHT) HOCUS POCUS (T/WEENS):  We have the props, the scripts, the movie, the big screen and candy! Just bring your t/weenage self and a friend (ages 10+) and get ready for a wicked fun night watching Hocus Pocus at our popular IMN (Interactive Movie Night).

Feel free to dress the in the ‘spirit’ or come as you are. Register yourself and your bestie by using the online calendar or giving us a call.

What exactly is Hocus Pocus about? When three outlandishly wild witches are accidentally conjured up by pranksters, they return from 17th century Salem and set out to cast a spell on the town, but first they must outwit three kids and a talking cat.

This is a fun rated PG movie with a runtime of 96 minutes. Please arrive a few minutes early so we can dole out the goods and start the film promptly at 6 PM. Thank you!

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CAT RECORDING: Dubbed the "Cat Whisperer," Dr. Rachel Geller will explain common cat behavior problems encountered by owners. 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. 

Did you miss this informative Zoom webinar that recently aired? Not to fear! Take a look at the Kimball Library YouTube channel and watch it before the recording expires. Tick tock! Time is running out!

HOTSPOTS: They are hot! They are Hotspots! You may not know that we currently own three that are available for lending to Kimball Library cardholders.

The Wi-Fi Hotspot is about the size of a deck of cards and can link up to 15 devices to the internet at the same time. The Wi-Fi Hotspot is portable and simple to use.

The Hotspot connects to T-Mobile’s cellular network. By connecting your phone, tablet, or other wireless-enabled device to it, you can get online anywhere within T-Mobile’s coverage area – try it at home, or wherever you're going!

If you are curious you should try them out at home so you can be prepared the next time you go on vacation or lose your internet connection. Your kids will LOVE that they can use their iPads and Chromebooks when traveling in car. Come on by and tech it out!
