In partnership with Thyme & Spice, join us to explore flavors, food, and make new friends in the library's newest book club. Each gathering will focus around a spice, and participants are encouraged to read a book that is in some way connected to the geography or culture of the spice. We'll gather to learn about the spice as well as sample it in foods and drinks. No registration required.
Next Meeting: December 20th @ 10 AM
Next Spice: Ginger is the rhizome of the flowering plant Zinigiber officinale, nation to the Indian subcontinent, but written about widely in India, China, and the Middle East. Choose a book related to one of those geographic areas or to the spice itself, and come prepared to share your read and taste test some delicious treats.
Join Burlington Public Library’s Board of Trustees as we read challenged and banned books. Each month, one of our trustees will host an exploration of books relating to a certain theme. For this month, we'll discuss classic books that are banned. Come with an open mind and be prepared to discuss the freedom to read and how these classic tales ended up on the banned list. Click here to learn more about banned and challenged books.
Next Meeting: November 8th @ 12 PM
