Get a preview of available books during Friday Firsts at 10 a.m. May 14 and 28. Use the Evergreen Indiana app or call the library to place a hold on the book.
The Spilling Ink Writers’ Group will meet virtually at 2 p.m. May 22. Linz, who also is a published author, will discuss writing humor.
If county COVID-19 numbers allow, one program will be offered in person inside a tent in the library parking lot. Originally, the program was to be offered twice on separate days, but due to logistics with the tent, there will be a single program.
Adults are invited to make an apple scent diffuser at 11 a.m. May 13 in the tent. Registration is required by May 12 with a minimum of three and a maximum of eight participants. Register at myjclibrary.org/events or call 812-523-4636. In case of inclement weather, the program will become a take-and-make craft.
For teens ages 12 to 19, programs will be posted to the JCPL Teen Scene Facebook page or at jcplteenscene on Instagram.
Teens can pick up a take-and-make envelope book during May while supplies last.
Join the JCPL Teen Scene Discord server for Recommends and Respawn at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. Recommend favorite reads and play Respawn virtually with friends.
Teen Totes are available for teens in grades 6 to 12 while supplies last. Contact [email protected] for information about the totes, which include a monthly themed surprise with a library book of choice.
