| SPOTLIGHT
ON THE LIBRARY |
|
FEBRUARY 13, 2006
The month of January was busy at the library. We were able to offer ten
different programs that were attended by 340 patrons. Some programs
included: Digging Up Your Roots a genealogy workshop, Fahrenheit
451 a book discussion, a magic show featuring Moreland the Magician
and several Web-based computer workshops.
In addition to offering great January programs, the early part of
February offered two grand lectures in tribute to Black History month and
Women’s Rights. The library would like to thank all those who
participated.
The exciting news is programs have not stopped here at the library. We
are half way through February and we still have two beneficial programs
remaining.
The first program is hosted by the Adult Educational Opportunity
Center. Cheri Clark will be available in the library’s Local History room
from 3 – 7 pm on Thursday, February 23 to help individuals with career and
education planning, admission and financial aid information and forms
necessary for entering college. This program is free for everyone.
Interested participants must call the library to register or call
1-888-394-2362 toll-free.
The second program is a computer course that teaches patrons about
researching New York State newspapers from the library’s databases.
Patrons will learn how to save time and money by using this free and easy
to use Web resource. In order to attend, patrons must register at the
library or call (585) 593-3410. |
