LIBRARY MUSINGS: New library director
By Grand Forks and District Public Library
Hello Grand Forks! You probably haven’t met me yet. My name is Cari Lynn Postnikoff and I am going to be your new Library Director here at Grand Forks & District Public Library while Avi takes a parental leave. I want to make sure that our public library continues to be one of the most important learning and cultural centres in Grand Forks. I believe that public libraries are crucial in bringing together the community and helping it to be the best it can be. Since I’m new around here, I’m still trying to find out how the library can best serve you, the people of our community. I want to discover how the library can help the Grand Forks area grow and learn with programs, services, and other initiatives. If you have any ideas for me, please stop by and let me know, I would be happy to hear what you have to say.
Need another reason to drop into the library? Here’s what’s going on for the next little while:
Fling!
We are very excited that Lily Iona Mackenzie, author of Fling!, which is “a wildly comic romp on mothers, daughters, art, travel, and death,” will be visiting us for a reading and conversation on Saturday, August 8 at 3:00PM.
Christina Lake
Did you know that this summer we have storytime and Lego at our Christina Lake location (in the Christina Living Arts Centre) on Wednesdays at 1:00-2:30? Stories start at 1:00 and Lego starts at 1:30. All ages are welcome, but children seven and under must be accompanied by an adult.
BC Day
The library will be closed on Saturday, August 1 for the BC Day weekend. We’ll reopen on Tuesday, August 4.
