On Thursday, November 19, at 1 p.m., come meet local mystery writer Cliff Couch! After serving in the Marine Corps and on various law enforcement teams, he is now a professor of criminal justice who “enjoys writing about crooks, sleuths, politicians, and the quirky small-town characters in between.”

He is the author of two books in the Wallace Island Mysteries series. Bring your friends and family and join us for this special event!

Free computer classes will be offered at the library throughout November, beginning November 9 at 9:15 a.m. No prior computer knowledge is necessary, and you are welcome to bring your own computer.

Join us every Wednesday at 10:00 AM for a fun-filled hour of stories, music, crafts, and play!
