Cooking the Books Book Club It's a fresh kind of book club! Check out any cookbook of your choice from our collection. Make one or more of the recipes and bring your book and food to our potluck meeting. Sample the foods others have made and join in the discussion of the cookbooks. Did you like your book? Were there many good recipes? Directions easy to follow? If your nightly menu is on auto repeat then this is a great way to become re-energized about cooking. |

#PinedaleRocks with guest artist Mae Orm Heard of the national rock-painting trend? People of all ages are finding rocks, painting them, adding a hashtag, then placing them back out in the world for others to find. The goal is to brighten your community by spreading joy. You can join the movement by painting one or more rocks, posting it on social media with the #PinedaleRocks hashtag and hiding it around the community for others to find. This event is intended for adults, but older children may also attend. Be a part of building something fun and inspiring… no artistic talent required!! |

Sarah Jessica Parker Book Club We’re starting up a different kind of book club, based on Book
Club Central, a new initiative of the American Library Association
that was designed to provide the public with the very best in reading.
It’s a quarterly book club in which award-winning actor, producer,
and avid reader Sarah Jessica Parker is the honorary chair. Ms.
Parker will select books throughout the year to share her joy of
reading and discussing good books with readers everywhere. The book
club will begin in Pinedale during October and meet four times a
year. |

Wyoming Libraries Snapshot Day 2016 On Tuesday, October 11th, libraries around Wyoming took photos and gathered testimonials of people enjoying their resources. Wyoming Libraries Snapshot Day allows libraries all across the state to show the tremendous impact that they have on the lives of Wyoming residents. Statistics and figures are great for reports, but your stories and photos better illustrate "a day in the life" of a library and help decision makers understand how valuable libraries are to their communities. See a few of the pictures we captured of Pinedale Library patrons using their library! |
