A Library is also available in which we have separated into several different "rolling crates" so they will be accessible at the meetings. Each member who volunteered to take on a crate brings it with them so another member can check out a book with Teri. Books may be returned at the following meeting or arrangements can be made to get the book(s) returned if borrower/lender will not be attending that particular month! Reach Teri via email at terigaus@bigplanet.com to check out a book. See the bibliography at the below for reference. We invite you to join in on our fun and education.
