SUMMARY:The library will be loud and celebratory this morning
DESCRIPTION:We are hosting a Repair Cafe and the library will be more active and louder than usual this morning.  Most activity will occur on the first floor\, but some noise may be heard on lower levels\, including a loud cowbell noise – which means that we successfully repaired something and kept it out of a landfill – YAY!     \nWe understand that this level of activity and noise is different from what people often expect of a library\, and that the effort to protect our planet\, save our community money\, and build community connections is totally worth celebrating! Please plan accordingly.

SUMMARY:Must Read Mondays - "The Weight Of Ink\," by Rachel Kadish
DESCRIPTION:Set in London of the 1660s and of the early twenty-first century\, The Weight of Ink is the interwoven tale of two women of remarkable intellect: Ester Velasquez\, an emigrant from Amsterdam who is permitted to scribe for a blind rabbi\, just before the plague hits the city; and Helen Watt\, an ailing historian with a love of Jewish history. \nWhen Helen is summoned by a former student to view a cache of newly discovered seventeenth-century Jewish documents\, she enlists the help of Aaron Levy\, an American graduate student as impatient as he is charming\, and embarks on one last project: to determine the identity of the documents’ scribe\, the elusive “Aleph.” \nElectrifying and ambitious\, The Weight of Ink is about women separated by centuries—and the choices and sacrifices they must make in order to reconcile the life of the heart and mind. \n(description by publisher)\n\nPlease fill out this form to get the GoToMeeting sign in information.\nhttps://forms.gle/UE9ZDT8ZD3a7UAQs8

SUMMARY:Snap and Code with Lego Robotics
DESCRIPTION:Children ages 6-10 code with Legos and Scratch. Along the way they will grow more comfortable with the iterative nature of the design process\, which involves experimenting\, failing\, and trying again. This program could be a good fit if you have a creative kid who loves solving puzzles.  Registration is required (coming soon)\, and space is limited to 10 children\, please sign up only if you can commit to coming to both sessions on 3/19 and 3/26. Lego Robotics programming is possible thanks to the support of the Brownell Library Foundation and the Al Bergendahl Fund.
