Joan, our librarian, and the board, wish you all a very Happy and Successful New Year!
There are some exciting workshops lined up for January. On Jan. 4 from 1 to 3:30 p.m., you can learn how to borrow library ebooks and to transfer them to your e-reader device. You are welcome to bring your laptop, e-reader and library card to follow along.
On Jan. 25 at 1 p.m. Blanca Botero Fuentes will give a colouring book workshop. She has recently published a colouring book and 10 of these will be available to library patrons. A donation for these would be welcome. Bring your own colouring pencils and an extra fine black sharpie marker. Let Joan know if you are coming. The library phone number is 403-558-3927.
From Feb. 7. to March 7 there will be a Holocaust Travelling Book Display.
New non-fiction books in are: Becoming by Cindy Crawford, The Village Effect by Susan Pinker, and Thank You For Being Late by Thomas Friedman.
A good read is Etta and Otto and Russell and James by Emma Hooper. It is a fanciful, magical story of an 84-year-old woman who sets out on foot from her starkly beautiful home on the Prairies to the Atlantic Ocean.
