The City of Ember

The teen book group is reading “The City of Ember” for November. The story takes place in a post-apocalyptic underground world where resources are running out. The city of Ember, "the only light in the dark world," began as a survival experiment created by the "Builders" who wanted their children to "grow up with no knowledge of a world outside, so that they feel no sorrow for what they have lost." An opening prologue describes the Builders' intentions-that Ember's citizens leave the city after 220 years. They tuck "The Instructions" to a way out within a locked box programmed to open at the right time. But the box has gone astray. The book discussion will be on November 7th at 1:30 pm, and will watch the film on a later date to be determined. Pick up your copy at the library!

Halloween festivities

Want to try out some creative ways to dress up a trick-or-treat bag? Or would you rather decorate a pumpkin? Either way, we have some fun things in store on October 20th from 6-8 pm. The library will be hosting a “decorate a pumpkin OR dress up a trick-or-treat bag.” We’ll have those activities, new books on display, a spooky movie to watch, and light refreshments. Pre-registration is required. Call the library at 866-1733.
