We’ll meet on Tuesday, October 28, 7-8pm at the center table in the library. Patrons of all ages are welcome. (We’ll peruse a variety of LRR-themed picture books, read a few of them aloud, and share milk & cookies. No preparation is required; there will be no homework!)

Raffle Drawing on Saturday, Sept. 9/13th at 10am!

Filed under: Mark Your Calendar! — Library Liz @ 3:32 pm

Patrons young and old have a chance to win one of several prizes on Saturday — but some have greater chances than others — simply because they visit their library frequently.

Buckland’s Emma Jepsen, 11, a library volunteer and avid reader, has been visiting the library at least once a week since June; each time she walks through the door, she tosses her name into the raffle pot. Jepsen has her sights set on winning a poster-sized photograph of be-spectacled canine patrons of another library. The print is the work of award-winning photographer David Langley, who taught at the Hallmark Institute of Photography in Turner’s Falls during the 2007-2008 academic year.

The gift certificate donated by the proprietor of Shelburne Falls’ Nancy Dole Books & Ephemera has caught the attention of the literate collectors among us. The hand-carved mug, by local potter Molly Cantor, is coveted by neighbors anticipating chilly evenings with cinnamon tea and a cozy mystery. The patron whose name is first to be drawn from the pot by Library Director Liz Jacobson-Carroll will receive her desired prize; those whose names are drawn subsequently will choose from the remaining items.

Would you, too, like a chance to win one of these prizes? If so, simply stop by the BPL this week (library hours posted to the right) to enter before the drawing. There is no cost to enter, but borrowing something to read, watch, or listen to is strongly recommended by the librarian.
