On April 7th. The villagers were treated to an afternoon of a seed exchange. A wide array of seeds were donated, vegetable, floral and herbal, There were door prizes as well. It was a lovely way to kick start the gardening season and to meet with other gardeners. Lynda, our librarian, hopes to create a seed bank in the library.
Saturday, May 7th will be our Highway Clean up. This is a province wide enterprise and our best fundraiser of the year, We need volunteers to help with this. If it is raining that day, it will be held the following Saturday, May 17th. If you can help us out, please call Jan at 403-558-2060.
The library’s mandate is to provide a life long learning experience for the community of Longview. To encourage this, we hope you will use the inter-library system which provides a good access to a vast amount of knowledge. If you are not familiar with this system, Lynda Winfield, our librarian, would be happy to help you
New books in the library are: The Alice Network, by Kate Quinn and The Girls in the Garden by Lisa Jewel.
On May 4, Celia Dewane will be in the library for a reading and signing of her book Stories From A Rocking Chair at 1 p.m. Celia is a long time resident of Longview. Refreshments will be served.
Happy Reading and Gardening,
