And Now We Have A Book Club!

After I posted just the other day about the availability of interlibrary loans for book club quantities of a title, it turned out that there were enough Seldovians interested that yes, we’re actually going to be starting up a book club.
I am pleased to announce that the Seldovia Public Library and the Seldovia Village Tribe Prevention Program are jointly sponsoring a book club for adults. The first title planned is Charles Frazier’s Cold Mountain and initial plans are to meet on Thursdays at 7 pm in the library once books have been received.
Jenifer Dickson of SVT is the organizing contact for signups and more specific scheduling information: jdickson@svt.org or 234-7898. Signups will be limited by the number of copies of the books available, so don’t wait too long if you’re interested.
