Hamilton Public Library news<\/p>\n

By Hilary Virgil\"Hilary<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

(Hamilton, NY- April 2013) Authors, authors, everywhere! The community has been fortunate to have hosted several authors within the last month. Colgate\u2019s Office of Advancement has generously donated several copies of Sheryl Sandberg\u2019s book \u201cLean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead\u201d for our library collection.<\/p>\n

Sandberg has become widely known through her work with Facebook and was recently a guest speaker at Colgate\u2019s Entrepreneur Weekend.<\/p>\n

The Colgate Bookstore has also donated the novels \u201cLearning to Swim\u201d and \u201cA Cold and Lonely Place,\u201d both written by author Sara J. Henry, who was the guest of honor last week for their program \u201cA Warm and Friendly Evening.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peter Sagal, popular host of NPR\u2019s \u201cWait, Wait, Don\u2019t Tell Me,\u201d was recently hosted by Palace Theater. A number of Sagal\u2019s books and audio performances are also available through the Mid-York Library System.<\/p>\n

But wait, there\u2019s more! The library has also added a number of popular new DVDs to our collection including Downton Abbey seasons one through three; Life of Pi; Lincoln; The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey; Wreck-It Ralph and Hotel Transylvania.<\/p>\n

The new DVDs are being featured for a time on the top shelf of the movie display.<\/p>\n

Sign your child up to receive a free book each month! The library is beginning to host the Dolly Parton Imagination Library locally. Babies, toddlers and preschoolers under age five are eligible to enroll if they live within the Hamilton Central School District.<\/p>\n

Stop by our kick-off event Saturday, May 11, from 11 a.m. to noon to find out more about the program and enroll. The kick-off event will also feature entertainment by local story tellers, children\u2019s crafts, and refreshments provided by the Friends of the Library. We hope you\u2019ll join us!<\/p>\n
