Meeteetse Library Starts New Programs
Saturday, Mar. 12, 11:00 am, Burlington author Melissa Cook will be at the Meeteetse Li- brary talking about her book, “Call of the Last Frontier: The True Story of a Woman’s Twenty-Year Alaska Adventure”. The book is available at the Library if you’d like to read it before she comes. She will also have books for purchase when she comes.
Coffee Talk at the Library this month will be on the 3rd Tuesday, March 15 at 10:00. Our guest this month will be Sidnee Everhart, intern with the Park County Library System. She has been instrumental in putting together the new Seed Library for Park County Libraries. She will share all the information about the Seed Library in Meeteetse – when will it start, how does it work, what will be available, how can you participate, and more! Bring your questions and ideas and come for a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or hot cider.
The Library Book Group is reading a Tony Hillerman book this month. For those who are longtime fans it will be fun to revisit an old favorite, for those who haven’t read him it will be a new treat! Books are at the Library, stop by and pick one up to read with us. March meeting for Book group will be March 16 at 1:00. Everyone is welcome to join us!
Tech Time – are you stumped with your mobile device and need a little help? Wednesday mornings are a good time to come up to the Library for a little one-on-one help. I’m not an expert but I can help with most day to day tasks – get an app downloaded, get books to read or listen to on your device, send and receive emails and texts, and so on.
YOU have to know and remember your login and passwords to all accounts – I can’t and won’t help you with this! But once we’re in I’m happy to help!!
