Middleburgh Library Notes for Wednesday, February 24, 2021

 At the Middleburgh Library, we are opening our doors to patrons. You can come in and browse the stacks, use the computer, print, make copies, or fax during half-hour blocks. We will continue to provide curbside service.

Please note: We can have only 10 people inside the library at a time. At this time, there is no seating and no use of public restrooms. Masks are required at all times while in the library and gloves (provided) must be used handling books. We look forward to seeing you!

 Online Storytime

 On March 2 at 10:45 a.m. join Miss Terry for a fun, interactive stay at home storytime for children 0-5 and their caregivers. We will read stories, sing songs, play games and participate in activities around a weekly theme. Registration is required. This storytime will take place on the Zoom platform.  Once you register you will receive the Zoom join link.  

Virtual Insight Meditation   

On March 2 at 5:15 p.m. our popular Insight Meditation group is meeting virtually!

What do you want most deeply? Seeing your life calmly and clearly helps answer this. Insight Meditation is a simple way to steady your mind, stop wandering in day-dreams, and end the suffering of troubling thoughts. Our group is a place to sit quietly in safety, supported by others; to allow understanding and compassion to arise; to encourage loving-kindness and patience. We welcome those with no experience to advanced mediators', teens to seniors. Registration is required. Please go to our website to register and receive the Zoom link.

E-Books 

On March 3 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. join us for Let’s Get E-Book Savvy - Via Zoom with facilitator Jody DeJong. She will teach how to get started with a Kindle, e-reader, phone, or other device, and download books. Whether you use a free site through the library, such as Libby or Overdrive, or download from a commercial website, you can have a great reading experience! Please have your device handy. To register, go to our website and click on register for the Zoom site.
