Lectures are on Saturdays or Sundays,
beginning at 3 p.m., and are followed by refreshments. There is no charge
and all are welcome, although seating is limited. Given weather and
illnesses, please call to confirm date and topic.
For the first time in 7 years we are
sorry to announce that one of our lectures has to be cancelled. The
March 14, 2010 lecture by Rob Conklin will not be held due to conflicts in
Mr. Conklin's schedule. Because of the interest shown in this
lecture, we will try to reschedule it for later in the year.
April 18, 2010 (Sunday): Deirdre
Larkin; The Cloisters' Horticulturist will speak on The Medieval Calendar
Year: Labors of the Month.
The
Book Village is changing and growing!
Blenheim Hill
Books is under new ownership. Barbara and Cheryl (Deans at Rutgers
University) have expanded the history and poetry sections and will be
adding African-American and Women’ Studies sections.
Liberty Rock
Books, owned and operated by Jim, John & Tom (librarian, graphic
artist, and Hospice chaplain) is in the process of purchasing a large
building on Main Street. Once relocated (late Spring/early Summer ) they
will be able to display more of their 85,000 books. Until then, they
remain in their space next to Blenheim Hill but now have 3 times as many
books on their shelves. After they move, Blenheim will be expanding into
Liberty Rock’s space.
Elda (former
Ambassador and private pilot) at the Hobart International Bookport
continues to specialize in current European authors and has also expanded
her aircraft section.
Don (pianist
and furniture restorer) will be opening his new shop "Mysteries &
More" on Main Street in Spring.
We, Bill and
Diana Adams (physician and attorney), hope by Spring or Summer to expand
our shop by opening the basement and filling it with books.
David
Pryor-Johnson continues to sell a select group of signed modern first
editions and antiquarian books from shelves at Adams’ Book Shop.
Hatherleigh
Press recently relocated to Hobart. Visit them at www.hatherleighpress.com
The Hobart Inn
(formerly Leo’s Pizza) is under new ownership and has been renovated. It
is now open for lunch and dinner 6 days a week (closed Tuesdays).
