The Oak Bluffs Public Library helps kickoff the new year and keeps on going with its Fit in ‘15 program, which lasts all year long.
Twelve Disciples of Nelson Mandela, a 2005 documentary film by Thomas Allen Harris, will screen at the Oak Bluffs Public Library on August 19.
By the time Eli Dagostino captured the perfect shot of Anthony Esposito, Mr. Esposito seemed close to hypnotized.
Jeffrey Churchill has been collaging since he was a boy, papering the walls of his room with photographs from Sports Illustrated and making collage posters from National Geographic for his friends. His mother wasn’t thrilled about the wall decorations, but the posters were a hit with his friends.
For the second day in a row, the Oak Bluffs Library has been closed due to a malfunctioning air conditioning system.
The library was closed at 11:30 a.m. today. On Thursday morning library officials first announced the early closure of the upstairs portion of the library. Soon after, the rest of the library was closed. The library meeting room, where a book sale is ongoing, is fully air conditioned and remains open.
The building has a longstanding history of heating and air conditioning problems.
A changing of the guard took place Wednesday morning as Zoe Pechter and Sondra Murphy read aloud to a group of youngsters at the Oak Bluffs Public Library. Regulars and newcomers to the children’s room eagerly pointed at the colorful picture books, laughed as they danced the Hokey Pokey, and sang along to “the French song,” a staple of Oak Bluffs storytime.
The change was ostensibly a personnel one. Ms. Pechter, who started her new job as children’s librarian on June 1, was taking the baton from Ms. Murphy, who is now the library’s director.
