Jun 18 @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm

Join us for a special meeting of the Intersectional Speculative Fiction Book Club.

Location TBD, potentially offsite.

Our Intersectional Speculative Fiction Book Club meets every other month, on the third Tuesday, from 6:30 – 8:00 PM. All are welcome to join! Registration is required. Email us at bookclubs@ewmlibrary.org if you are interested in joining and to request the next book title.

Jul 10 @ 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm

Book a one on one appointment with genealogist Brian Tabor. One appointment available per month. Registration is required! We will stop accepting appointment requests at 6pm the day before each Genealogy Help.

What are some things you can work on during Genealogy Help? Glad you asked! Brian can help you get started on a family tree using the census, vital records, family mementos, and the library’s genealogy resources like Ancestry and Heritage Quest.

Please note: If you are not able to make the listed times, but would still like genealogy help, please email Stephanie at slevine@ewmlibrary.org. She will do her best to accommodate you with an appointment at a different weekday time.
