El libro del club es 'Honrare la Navidad en mi corazon y procurare conservarla durante todo el ano' de Charles Dickens.

El extenso periodo victoriano consolido buena parte de la imagen y el caracter que asociamos a estas festividades hoy en dia. En esta recopilacion antologica no falta, como es natural, Charles Dickens, y junto a los suyos se recogen tambien magnificos relatos de Anthony Trollope, Charlotte Riddell, Arthur Conan Doyle (uno de ellos protagonizado por Sherlock Holmes), Juliana Ewing y Wilkie Collins.

Join us at the Parker Williams Library Innovation Lab for our Laser Cutter Orientation!

This orientation session will introduce participants to the laser-cutting services we offer at the library. Those who complete the orientation will then be able to request supervised time to use a laser cutter at any HCPL branch that has one. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a laser cutter in the future.

This event is open to all ages. Children ages 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult guardian.

Join us for Movie Time Club at the Parker Williams Branch Library.

This time we will watch Home Alone (1990, rated PG).

Movie Summary: A mischievous 8-year-old who's picked on by his older siblings and ignored by his parents would really rather be left alone—and that's exactly what happens when he gets accidentally left behind in a frenzied rush to the airport for a family vacation in Paris over the holiday season. After learning to fend for himself, the boy has to protect his house against two bumbling burglars who are planning to rob it.
