It’s hard to believe another year has gone by, but I know that many Vermonters won’t forget this year in a long time. Our thoughts are with you.
With the holidays over, we look to the future for meaningful activity. There’s much at the Library to fit the bill. Think of all the books there! And there are even more downstairs that are for sale at bargain prices.
News about automation: the changeover from the present system should occur on January 23rd, and should make taking out items more efficient for everyone.
Whist parties in January are on the 13th and 27th both Friday nights at 7:00 p.m.
We will be showing a movie, The Help, at the Town Hall on the big screen, on January 23rd, a Monday, at 1:30 following the Senior Meal at the Rotary Building. There’s no charge, and the book, from which the movie was made, was at the top of the best-sellers list for many weeks.
The Library will also be collecting box tops for education. Find the collection box in the vestibule of the Library.
Rug braiding classes will be starting in February on the 4th and 11th, and in March on the 3rd and 10th on Saturdays from 9 to 12 in the Klock Room.
On the First Wednesday, Jan 4th, Rutland Free Library will feature film expert, Rick Winston, speaking on What Makes a Classic Film? Time is 7:00 p.m.
Now an event to look forward to in April. We have started the process with the Vermont Humanities Council to obtain the Old Country Fiddler for a program on Wednesday, April 18th. Further details will be available in future issues of this newsletter.
Also in the future, look for scheduling of book discussions; also, we can always use books for our on-going sale. No encyclopedias, magazines or text-books, musty or yellowed, torn or coverless. Thank you.
