County Public Libraries announce February events
All events are free and open to the public.
Have you checked out the Large Print section at your local library? Each branch has best-sellers, mysteries, westerns, romances and thrillers for our patrons with low vision.
The Libby library is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Feeling the winter blues? In partnership with the Libby Friends of the Library, the Libby library presents “Light Reading,” a new program to provide full spectrum light therapy lamps for public use throughout the winter. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is estimated to affect up to 10 million Americans every year, and the standard treatment is at least 30 minutes under a light therapy lamp. No diagnosis is required. Simply stop by the Libby library.
Come in from the cold. Every Saturday morning at the Libby library, warm up with a cup of locally roasted coffee and homemade pastries. Sit, relax, enjoy the company of others or simply read the newspaper. Coffee is provided by Camp Creek Coffee and pastries are donated by the Libby Friends of the Library.
Preschool story time will be at the Libby library on Tuesdays at 10:15 a.m., the Troy library on Fridays at 11:15 a.m. and the Eureka library on Thursdays at 11:30 a.m.
Chess games will be every Saturday at the Troy library from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Feb. 2, 10:15 a.m. to 5 p.m.: Libby Friends of the Library book sale.
Feb. 7, 10:30 a.m.: Libby Friends of the Library meeting.

Feb. 24, 11 a.m.: Join us at the Libby library for “A Hot Drink and A Good Book,” our monthly book discussion. This month features “The Big Short,” by Michael Lewis. Using personal accounts of the fiasco, Lewis uncovers the greed and short-sightedness of Wall Street along with the unlikely heroes who predicted the fall. Copies are available at the library.
