Kent Memorial Library made the transition from summer to back to school and into the fall season last month. Adult services held another great reading challenge with the theme of Overlooked & Underrated Titles and began a morning walking program that moves on through the end of October.
There will be no Friends of KML book collection in September. We use this time to prepare for our annual book sale.
Car warranties, student loan debt forgiveness, threats from the IRS. Have you gotten phone calls or voicemails from people asking you about any of these topics (and more)?
Christine and Scott MacClinic have built a Free Library for neighbors to enjoy.
Kent Memorial Library thrived this summer as our reading programs, contests and events brought in a record number of participants in many areas.
The Friends of KML book sale will be held again at Sacred Heart Church’s Father Ted Hall on the weekend of September 10 – 12.
This time last year we had a lot of things on our mind. We were wondering where we would find toilet paper, how to keep our glasses from fogging up while wearing face masks, and asking “did I just lose my sense of taste or is this food just bland?”
For the month of July, our “Books & Beyond” series continues with New York Times’ bestselling author Gabrielle Glaser. She will be joining us via Zoom on Thursday, July 15 at 7 p.m. to talk about her new book, American Baby: A Mother, A Child and the Shadow History of Adoption.
Summer reading is in full-swing, or should we say constant wag, as Tails & Tales features reading challenges, raffle tickets, weekly prizes and lots of programs to keep kids, teens and adults learning, growing and playing.
A bright collection of original watercolor paintings is featured in July at the William Pinney Gallery of the Kent Memorial Library in Suffield. Featured is the work of Art Scholz of Tolland, an award-winning artist, whose work is found in several galleries and private collections.
