Westerlo Library Notes for Wednesday, November 11, 2020

Thank you for all of your support at the Election Day Bake Sale. This was our first Election Day Bake Sale and our first time taking pre-orders.

It was great seeing you, catching up on how you are doing, and showing you what we have new at the library. Not only did we raise funds for the library but you reminded us again that, even during this difficult time when we don’t see each other as often, our community still cares about our library. Thank you! 

Spice Take-and-Makes

November’s spice is nutmeg. This kit includes recipes, information on the health benefits and history of nutmeg and some of the spices to make the recipes. For everyone who loves to try new recipes this is the take and make for you. There is also a goto meeting set up for talking about what recipes you tried and to chat about food in general. Information about the meeting is included in the kit.  

STEAM Kits: Human Body

We are all thankful for our healthy bodies this month so let’s learn about how they work! Stop by the library each week to pick up new kits or you can email and request to have it put out on the porch for a pick up.

Technology Wednesdays

GoToMeeting

help video

Until we can have in person programs, we will be offering virtual programs. These programs are shared through GoTo Meetings. We have a video on our website www.westerlolibrary.org to help explain the basics of how to use GoToMeeting.

Most of the time all you need to do is click on the links that are given on your computer, tablet or smartphone or call into the meeting. You will need to get the GoToMeeting app. If after watching the video you have any questions, please call the library at 518-797-3415 during our regular hours and one of our staff will be happy to help you.
