From Beryl / Save Me the Plums by Ruth Reichl

This is the story of a former Berkeley hippie entering the corporate world and worrying about losing her soul. It highlights the moment restaurants became an important part of popular culture, a time when the rise of the farm-to-table movement changed, forever, the way we eat.

From Linda / Magazines at the Library like National Geographic, People, the Week and Time

Magazines at the Library like National Geographic, People, the Week and Time grab my attention when new issues arrive.  I love looking at the pictures and reading about places from all over the world, people and sometimes current events.  In addition to what is available for check out at the Library, the Libby app has over 5,500 magazines to subscribe to for FREE. 

Every topic of interest can be explored. There are no loan limits, wait lists and no due dates.  My current magazines on Libby are Quilting Arts, Love Patchwork and Quilting, Love of Quilting and Simply Sewing.  When a new issue drops, I get a notification on my phone.   I stopped buying quilting magazines; now, I can look at the current and back issues to spark my creative, obsessive endeavors without spending a dime.  With your library card, you can check out magazines at the Library for 3 weeks at a time, or download them from Libby.  Happy magazine binge reading!!!

There are two boards that serve our library: Advisory Board and Library Foundation Board. Although they have different purposes, their main focus is support of our library.

The Advisory Board has 7 members: Barbara Skillman, Karen Hendrickson, Ramona Revak, Doug Furr, Kate Cunningham, Arthel Kline and Patty Dorroh, county commissioner. Primary responsibilities include proposing governance policies to the County Court for approval, approving an annual budget for the library, offering advice and community input regarding the operation of the library. They meet the last Tuesday of the month at 4:30 pm; meetings are open to the public. 

Harney County Library Foundation Board is currently composed of 4 members: Fred Flippence, Myndi Hemphill, Mike Laiosa and Jean Seeley. This 501(c)3 nonprofit board manages the Claire McGill Luce endowment, fundraises and accepts donations, grants and gifts for support of the library. They meet the third Tuesday of the month at 5 pm; meetings are open to the public.
We are so grateful to these people for volunteering their time and offering their support for our library.
