Chichester Town Library News

 

As many know, especially by reading the great article in the July 12th edition of the Sun, the Historic Chichester Garden Tour is happening this weekend, with its many additional attractions.  The library will be supporting this effort by staffing a booth with gardening and garden-related books for sale—at used book prices, of course.  Come, visit and see what bargains you can pick up.

 

Tomorrow, July 27th at 10:30 a.m., the Audubon Society will be at the library as part of the Summer Reading Program (SRP), “Build a Better World,” to teach the kids about various birds.  Additionally, the participants will be making seed balls to help build a better world for the birds, which helps to build a better world for everyone.

 

The Teen Advisory Group will be meeting on Saturday, July 29th.  This group is all about helping to build a better community (world).  They have already done a documentary on some of our more established citizens, which was available for viewing last year.  On August 12th, they will be facilitating the making of sweet rolls for a program of the SRP, which will directly benefit our hungry police officers and firefighters.

 

As an adjunct to the SRP, there will be FaceBook postings with hints from a book we found at the used book sale, “How to Make the World a Better Place,” by Jeffrey Hollender.  Although copyrighted in 1990, many of the basic tenets are still relevant.

 

The Down Cellar Writers will be meeting on Monday, July 31st, at 7 p.m.

 

Don’t forget the “little libraries” set up at Carpenter Park and the Town Hall/Grange.

 

The book for next month’s meeting of the Evening Book Club is All the Light We Cannot See, by Anthony Doerr.  This book has received accolades from all who have read it.  Join the group for the great discussion next month (August 9th) that is sure to happen.
