LIBRARY LECTURE SERIES
January 6, 2020
...a note from Library Manager Molly Jubitz
Hello, All:
It's that time again: the library's wonderful lecture series is about to begin. Below, you'll find the entire schedule through mid-April, but please keep in mind some dates may change between now and then. We will try our best to keep you abreast of any changes. Note also, some of the programs take place at locations other than the library. Those are noted on the schedule.
We have said the theme for most of the programs this season has to do with INTERACTION; interaction with each other, our environment and our community. Another theme is ENGAGEMENT, as we continue to build community and awareness.
