International Day of the Potato on May 30 represents a global shout-out to the mighty spud, highlighting its role in feeding billions, supporting farmers, and boosting sustainability. Picture fields of golden potatoes, from the sun-kissed slopes of the Andes to the lush, green farmlands worldwide. In honor of this humble hero, first domesticated circa 2500 BCE, why not grab a library cookbook showcasing its versatility and try a new way of enjoying the yummy tuber? 🥔

May 29 is birthday of T. H. White (Terence Hanbury ‘Tim’ White,) an English novelist best known for his influential Arthurian fantasy series, The Once and Future King, first published in 1958. His work is famous for modernizing King Arthur’s legend with psychological insight, humor, and satire.

We love this musing of his on courage:
"The bravest people are the ones who don’t mind looking like cowards."
