Libraries seem to be situated right at the intersection of the traditional and the cutting edge, and the Ridgefield Library is no exception. This week, on Saturday, November 12, two special programs in the Dayton Program Room illustrate how hi-tech and tradition go hand in hand @ your Library.
From 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, families are invited to celebrate Family Game Day by playing good, old-fashioned board games suitable for all ages, such as Scrabble, backgammon, Battleship, Sorry, Candyland, Settlers of Catan, Blokus, Bananagrams and Connect Four. Come enjoy a family favorite or learn a new game, so you are prepared to weather the next storm!
In the afternoon, we switch gears to the newest of new innovations, with a hands-on workshop called “Downloading Library E-Books and Audiobooks 101.” Drop in between 1:30 and 4:30, and staff members will be on hand to provide one-on-one assistance with downloading eBooks and audiobooks from our Overdrive service for use on your computer, eReader, mp3 player, smartphone or other portable device. Considering purchasing an eReader? Stop by to try out a Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader or iPad. Educate yourself now about these new technologies, before the holiday gift giving season.
