Join White Plains Librarian Barbara Wenglin for our Fall Zoom Story Series using the rich anthology, "Stories of Books and Libraries" (ed. Jane Holloway, Everyman's Pocket Classics, 2023).

At this session we will explore “Community Life” by Lorrie Moore (p.85), a complex, multifaceted tale featuring a young, idealistic university librarian haunted by the memory of her immigrant parents, who finds herself in a destructive relationship with a seductive political activist.

Copies of the series anthology, Stories of Books and Libraries, are available to reserve through the catalog with one held at the Reference Desk for reading in the Library. These vibrant and varied selections by diverse authors pay tribute to the written word in works published throughout history, to their readers, and to the intriguing spaces that house them. We will meet Thursdays from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m on 12/5/24, 12/19/24, 1/2/25, and 1/23/25 (final film discussion).  

Click This Zoom Link to register for the remaining dates of the series and attend when you can. The program is supported by The Friends of the White Plains Library.  All are welcome, including newcomers!
