Chichester Town Library News
The library will be
participating in “Trunk and Treat” at Carpenter Park this Saturday.
Books, as well as candy, will be our treat to youngsters from
5:30-6:30 p.m.
Thanks to everyone who
patronizes the library’s Down Cellar Used Book Sales. The last
one of the year has occurred. There will be a cart set up
upstairs of “new” and “like new” books. These books, along with some
vintage Christmas and holiday books will be available for sale.
They are definitely “gift” possibilities to consider.
The “Little Book Houses”
will close for the season at the end of October.
Does anyone in the
community have any “Duplos” that can be donated for the children’s
use at story hour on Thursdays at 10:30 a.m.? They will be
much appreciated, along with any “little people” which can be used
in a doll house.
The Evening Book Club is
meeting on Wednesday, November 8th, when they will be discussing
Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed by Jared
Diamond. The club alternates their book selection between a
fiction book and then a non-fiction book.
Remember to place your
order for the “Looking at Chichester Past and Present” calendar that
the Photography Club has compiled. This calendar is a
spectacular set of photographs for all who live and love Chichester.
It will sell for $20, with the proceeds to be donated to the
Chichester Food Pantry. You can sign up for your copy at the
library.
