Westerlo Library Notes for Saturday, April 8, 2017

The Board of Westerlo Library Trustees will meet on Monday, April 10, at 7 p.m. at the library. This is an open public meeting.

Memoir writing

The Memoir writing group will meet this Saturday, April 8, at 11 a.m. This group provides its members a safe and supportive place to learn together.

Led by Lila Hollister Smith, this group is open to all who are interested in self-expression through the art of writing.  The group meets once a month on the second Saturday of each month and new members are welcomed.

Tax forms

We currently have paper copies of the basic federal 1040 forms and reproducible copies of most of the federal tax forms that we will copy for you at no cost.  If you need other specialized forms — including extensions of time for filing — ask at the desk and we’ll help you find them online.

After school  

Join Miss Lee on Monday afternoons from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. for homework help, games, crafts, puzzles, music, and a lot more. Programs will also include storytelling, hands-on demonstrations, and visits from special guests. Lee is also available on Thursdays from 3 to 8 p.m. for homework help.

Story time  

From 11 a.m. to noon on Wednesday mornings Miss Lee presents stories, songs, and movement activities designed for infants to children up to 5 years old. In addition to developing pre-reading skills, singing, moving to music, and playing instruments all help foster a sense of rhythm and timing that are essential elements in developing the part of a child’s brain that shapes math skills.  

Storytimes are also a great opportunity to meet other parents of small children in Westerlo.

Technology Walk-In Wednesdays

Do you have a new Kindle or Nook, but don’t know how to download books? Need to brush up on your computer skills – or obtain basic skills?  See Amy on Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. for free, personalized, one-on-one instruction.
