This was a true team project and we are pleased to share it with you. If you like us on YouTube be sure to "like" us and share it with your friends. Our "You Are Here" video starts with a book at our library, goes statewide, to the US, the world and the universe....and ends with a book.....what a concept!

December Update


Hi all,
We are currently reading "Incarceron" by C. Fisher. Book #2 is due out the end of this month ("Sapphique'). "Incarceron" is a book that Tim picked and what a great book it is...a mixture of fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure all mixed together! And remember to watch for the eye. This book is an excellent read!

We have another Wii game. We now have Mario Kart thanks to grant monies from the NH Charitable Foundation. Last week 4 of us played and it was unanimous! We love this game and had a lot of laughs about this game....we hope you can join us for our next gaming day!

No meeting on Thursday Dec. 30th as the Ham Room is being renovated. See you next year!

Keep on reading! Janis :)
