SUMMARY:SAILING TO FREEDOM BOOK TALK
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion on the lesser known side of the Underground Railroad with Sailing to Freedom editor\, Tim Walker\, and contributing writer Elysa Engelman\, whose chapter focuses on fugitives from enslavement passing through New London\, Mystic\, and Stonington. \n“Long distance\, overland escapes from the deep south were virtually impossible\, and nearly all documented successful escapes from the far coastal south were achieved by water. Seaborne escapes were faster\, safer\, and less logistically complicated than attempting to run away from enslavement by land.”\n–Professor Timothy Walker

SUMMARY:NATIONAL LIBRARY WEEK
DESCRIPTION:National Library Week (April 23 – 29\, 2023) is a time to celebrate our nation’s libraries\, library workers’ contributions and promote library use and support. The theme for National Library Week 2023 is “There’s More to the Story\,” illustrating the fact that in addition to the books in library collections\, available in a variety of formats\, libraries offer so much more. Many libraries now lend items like museum passes\, games\, musical instruments\, and tools. Library programming brings communities together for entertainment\, education\, and connection through book clubs\, storytimes\, movie nights\, crafting classes\, and lectures. And library infrastructure advances communities\, providing internet and technology access\, literacy skills\, and support for businesses\, job seekers\, and entrepreneurs. Come visit us and participate in many of our special events for this week!
