Internet Skills
Tuesday, April 5 @ 12:00 PM
We can teach you or your friends the basics of how to get on the Internet, search for and navigate websites, and use web email. Limited spots available. Registration is recommended.
Lunch & Learn Knitting
Wednesday, April 6 @ 12:00 PM
Bring your brown bag lunch, needles and yarn to the Gilmer County Library. Already know how to knit, come for the fun! Its OK if can’t come to all the meetings. If knitting, bring #8 needles and yarn of any color. If crocheting, bring G or H hooks and Peaches & Cream cotton yarn of any color. This is a “drop in when you can” event.
Master Gardener Series
Shade Gardening with Native Plants
Thursday, April 7 @ 6:00 PM
Master Gardener, Debbie Rupp, will be giving tips and providing information on native plants that will grow in the shade. Many of us in the Gilmer County community live amongst towering trees and wooded areas which prevent us from gardening with typical greenhouse flowers and plants that require sun. Light refreshments will be available.
The Friends of the Library Bookshelf
Oldies but Goodies: come pick up missing titles from your reading collection of favorite authors like Baldacci, Johansen, Evanovich, Cussler, Child, Patterson, & Grisham. These are no-miss reads at bargain prices.
Remember that the library welcomes donations of gently read books and magazines. Those that the library doesn’t need come to the Bookshelf, with all the proceeds benefiting the library. Don’t forget to visit the “back room” of the Bookshelf for newly stocked non-fiction and magazines.
