Library celebrates 75th

Posted

HONESDALE, PA — The Wayne County Public Library (WCPL) will hold a 75th birthday bash at The Cooperage on Tuesday, June 16 from 7:30-10 pm. Wayne County’s own Steppin’ Eddy will help the library celebrate its 75th year in Honesdale with plenty of rock-and-roll, and there will be snacks by Paulie’s Hot Dogs. For those over 21, it is a BYOB event. For those under 21, water and soft drinks will be available. Rumor has it there may be a staff performance as well.

This also a BYOD event, as in Bring Your Own Device—smartphone, iPad or tablet—to see first-hand how to access free online audio-books, e-books and more than 100 popular digital magazines like Elle, Esquire and Rolling Stone.

Library volunteers will be on hand at 7:30 p.m. to demonstrate the wide variety of online resources from learning a new language to practice exams for licenses and certifications, to live homework help and signing up for a library card on-line. Then at 8 p.m., the music begins.

Tickets are available for $8 in advance at the library, 1406 Main St., or for $10 at the door. The WCPL’s YAC (Young Adult Council) is collecting donations of pet food for the Dessin Animal Shelter through the end of June. Bring a pet food donation and knock $1 off the price of admission.
