Around the World in 80 Books
Travel the world through books. Throughout the year, we will feature a rotating selection of books set in 80 different countries. Each month for the next 10 months, we will display 8 books on the second floor near the microfilm machines. This is an opportunity to read about places you may have been, want to visit someday, or are curious about. This month, we are featuring Afghanistan, Algeria, Barbados, Norway, Portugal, Uruguay, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe. How many places will you visit?
The library is currently open for browsing. If you are not comfortable entering the library, you can request items for curbside pickup during our regular hours (Monday-Thursday 9-9; Friday and Saturday 9-5). To reserve a book, place a request in the online catalog, fill out a request form, or call the reference desk at 978-674-4121. If you love these books, you can write a review or place them in the “Awesome Box” at the ground floor checkout desk.
