Adults

The Library is pleased to offer both recurring and one-time events geared to its adult patrons. Typically there is no charge for attending. Patrons should check the Community Calendar for a list of upcoming events.

Sundays at Two
The popular Sundays at Two program is a lecture series that brings in speakers on a variety of topics of interest to patrons. Five to six lectures are scheduled from January through March each year, bringing in experts on science, the arts, history, literature, and politics to share their thoughts and engage in discussion with attendees. Here is this year's schedule:

January 15 - Brad Parks presents "The Boy Next Door"
January 22 - Jim Merrill presents "Meet the Maker - Guitar Maker, that is!"
January 29 - Dr. Kimberly Reece presents "Harmful Algal Blooms in Chesapeake Bay"
February 12 - Diane Obeid presents "Women in Islam"
March 4 - Patrick Anderson presents "Best Crime Writers - How do you Choose?"
March 11 - Frans Kasteel presents "Growing up in Occupied Holland during WWII"

Book Signings
The Library schedules book signings for local and regional authors. Patrons may come to meet the authors and learn more about their recent publications.

Reader’s Corner
The Library hosts an informal book discussion group open to any patron. The group meets monthly to discuss books selected by its members. Participants are not required to attend discussions, but may choose to join the group when the book interests them. The Library orders multiple copies of paperback editions of the books to be discussed and makes them available to the group members. When possible, the Library also obtains an audio version of the book.

Irvington Farmers Market
The Library maintains an interesting and informative booth at the monthly Irvington Farmers Market, May through December. Pick up a FREE paperback or two and learn what's going on at the Library from the friendly and knowledgeable volunteers.
