If you've never visited our library in the Nabiac Showground and want to see what all the fuss is about now you've got the perfect excuse.
Whilst we're on great news, the response from students to our HSC nights has been amazing. We had 240 students across the two libraries attend the four nights. The feedback has been so positive we're planning more for September.
Remember all HSC students in our area can collect an exclusive HSC print card from their school, providing free printing at any MidCoast library branch, available until November 30.
For those looking for a different movie-watching experience you can join us at Tea Gardens library this Friday, September 6 to watch the film Mule.
The event gives you a chance for a chat afterwards, over a cup of tea. If you can't make it to the sessions, check out the amazing new Kanopy Film collection, available, free, through our website.
We have two author workshops coming up. You can join local author Joel Wakely, at Wingham library on September 16, to hear him talk about his latest and third book The Passion for Utes - An Australian Obsession.
And local author and screenwriter, Kaneana May will be talking about her debut novel, The One, at Forster library on September 24.
Copies of the books will be available for sale on the day at both events.
We also have two more of our popular workshops planned for September. At Stroud on September 16, we'll be running a free beeswax wrap workshop. Imagine never having to buy cling wrap again.
This workshop is presented by the fantastic team from MidCoast Waste Services.
At Forster, on September28 , we will be presenting another Clothes Swap Party. This is a great way to pass on unwanted clothing and to enjoy a great afternoon, featuring delicious refreshments, live entertainment and a workshop on repairing and re-wearing clothing, presented by JR Richards and Sweet Pea and Mamma.
If you'd like to swap some of your unwanted items, these pieces must be dropped off to Forster library during opening hours between September 25 and 27.
To qualify for swap tokens items must be in as-new or gently used condition without stains or faults.
Bookings are essential and tickets cost just $8 per person.
Please RSVP by September 24 to assist with catering and organisation.
