New Cookbook Club


WARNING: THIS BLOG POST MAY MAKE YOU HUNGRY!!!

We have an awesome new program for you! On September 7, 2016 at 6:00 pm, the library is starting its very first Cookbook Club. Meetings will be held on the first Wednesday of each month.

Here's what you need to know about this club:

Who can join?
Everyone! Members don't have to be serious, experienced cooks; enthusiasm for cooking is more important!

Where and when will the meeting take place?
The meeting will be held at the Valley Community Library on the first Wednesday of the month at 6:00 pm. The first meeting is on September 7 at 6:00 pm.

What is a Cookbook Club?
Like with a book club, members meet to discuss a specific book, in this case a cookbook, and enjoy each other's company along with some great food. Unlike with a book club, where the host is often in charge of providing much of the food and drink, meetings are a potluck meal; the dishes come from the cookbook in question.

How does it work?
There will be a copy of the month’s chosen cookbook located at the circulation desk at the Valley Community Library. Members can come in at any time during the month to choose their recipe and receive a copy to take home. The members will make the recipe at home, and present their creation on the at the meeting. Two people cannot make the same recipe. You are also welcome to share any notes or suggestions about the recipe you create to the meeting!
_______________________________________________
So, there you have it! If you or someone you know is interested, sign up at the library's Circulation Desk during our normal business hours. 

If you have any questions, email Kristen at  kwallo@albright.org or call the library at 570-489-1765.


This program is part of Pennsylvania Forward's Civic and Social Literacy

Pokémon Go!

Have you heard about the Pokémon Go craze yet? You probably have unless you've been hiding under a rock! ;)

The library has set up a special display for you all of you Pokémon lovers out there!



Also, if you'd like to take a break from catching them all, stop by our library and see if you can find the Pokéballs hidden throughout our stacks.
