Due to volunteer efforts, much of the money made on this event goes directly back to the library. Tickets are available at the library prior to the event or at the library the night of. Please join the Friends for this fun event, and consider becoming a Friend of the Library yourself. Prior to the event, the Friends of the Library will hold their monthly book sale on Saturday, Oct. 7, from 9:30 a.m. to noon, so if you’re looking for some gently used books at bargain prices, visit them in the library garage (please enter through the alley door). Friends are also always accepting donations for their sales, just drop them off at the library. (No textbooks or encyclopedias, please.) Story Time is back in full swing at the library this month with our new schedule: Mondays at 5:30 p.m. and Tuesdays/Thursdays at 10:30 a.m. We are also hosting our new preschooler event, “Stay & Play”, which consists of guided sensory stations for children and their caregivers to explore together. These activities are designed for preschool age and younger. We hope you will join us for these fun activities that promote socialization and strengthen your child’s literacy skills. Another program we have for preschoolers is called “1,000 Books Before Kindergarten,” which is an effort that is as simple as it sounds — promote reading 1,000 books to children before they reach Kindergarten. Reading to children promotes language and problem solving skills, empathy, prepares them for school, and more! And while it may sound daunting, reading just one book per erested in this spot? plore on their own. The art supplies will be rotating. We will also be continuing the Classic Movie Series on the second Sunday of the month at 2 p.m. Our second selection for this series will be “Gone with the Wind” on Oct. 8. This classic saga featuring the famed Scarlett O’Hara has a runtime of nearly 4 hours. Like our Oscar Movie Marathon, attendees are encouraged to bring their own snacks. “Stiches in the Stacks” is a new group for crafters to come and socialize with other crafters while working on their projects. It will be the third Thursday of each month in our Quiet Room at 6 p.m. There will be no instruction, just a space for those who are interested to come in and work on things in the company of others. The Teen Tech Tutors will be back on Oct. 21 from 1-3 p.m. Preregistration is preferred for that program to be sure we bring in adequate tutors. They can try to help with any sort of technology question you can think of! We’ll be hosting our last Seed Library class for the year on Oct. 10 at 1 p.m., with a video recording of that session being replayed at 6:30 p.m. The Readers Anonymous book club is discussing “Five Quarters of the Orange” by Joanne Harris on Oct. 10. This club meets the second Tuesday of each month at 1 p.m. in the director’s office at the library. Between the Lines book club is discussing “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared” by Jonas Jonasson on Oct. 24.
