This session shares my conversation with Mitzi Gousie, Programming and Outreach Librarian with the Franklin Public Library. We had our discussion at the Franklin TV Studios on Wednesday, May 22, 2024.

We talk about 

• Reviewed the regular open hours, and month ending holiday times
• Switching to summer hours, meaning they are closed on Sundays (until Sept)
• Closed on Wednesday, June 19 for Juneteenth
• Book sale weekend June 14 & June 15
• Community read The Humans by Matt Haig  http://www.matthaig.com/books/thehumans/ 
• Library events for June 2024
• Special events
• Kiddos, or “littles”
• Family
• Adults

The show notes include links to the Library page and to the calendar of events where registration for some of the events is required/recommended..

The recording runs about 30 minutes, so let’s listen in.
