County librarian promotes March author talks, library services across Lake County
Summary
County Librarian Christopher Veach highlighted March programming including a Virtual Author Talks series and availability of a 559-page oral history The Movement by Clara Bingham; library resources and branch pickup procedures were explained.
Christopher Veach, Lake County librarian, briefed the Board of Supervisors on library programs and resources during a March 4 meeting, emphasizing March's Virtual Author Talks series and how residents can access materials.
Veach highlighted The Movement: How Women's Liberation Transformed America by Clara Bingham, described it as an oral history useful for Women's History Month programming and noted the library has the book in print, audiobook and ebook formats. He said residents can request items from the county'wide catalog (which pools resources with Lake Sonoma and Mendocino County library systems) and pick them up at local branches in Lakeport, Clear Lake, Middletown, Upper Lake or on the bookmobile.
Veach said the Virtual Author Talks are funded by the Friends of the Lake County Library and produced in partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium; talks are live and recorded for later viewing. He listed upcoming presenters including Clara Bingham on March 20 at 11 a.m., Dan Heath and Jennifer Weiner, and pointed listeners to library.lakecountyca.gov for registration and recordings.
No board action was requested; Veach used his time to publicize services and encourage residents to use branch and online resources.
