The People’s University

As you probably know, the library is the place for lifelong learning.  No matter the topic, we keep you informed via our resources and programs. 

We are very pleased to announce a new lecture series that starts this Saturday, October 2, with a program that may be familiar to you.  If you have enjoyed attending our Armchair Travels program in the past, we hope you will be interested in this new series.  The People’s University will include informative travelogues – this Saturday’s will featured China’s Yangtze River and its beautiful gorges – as well as free lectures on history, the arts, community organizations, author visits and much, much more. 

The program will be held on Saturday afternoons at 3:00 PM in the Quiet Reading Room on the First Floor of the Main Library. Here is a schedule for the fall:
