Reviewing email, messaging, and calling functions, including attaching documents and setting up your voicemail.

Session Two (8/20):

Learning how to move apps on your homescreen to customize your layout.

Learning how to add new apps to your phone through your app store, including information about the library’s digital services.

Welcome, young adventurers! Come and join in on an exciting quest in the world of Dungeons and Dragons. Beginning our Summer Campaign, we will embark on a journey to the Enchanting Lands. A scourge has been set upon the Emerald Glade by an unknowable evil force, and as a consequence, the heroes who should be defending their village grow weary, losing skills and abilities as exposure times persist. Where will our adventure take us? It’s up to our heroes to decide!

This month, we will be meeting on Mondays: August 3, 10, & 24 from 3:30-4:30 P.M. The library will provide all supplies, just bring your imagination! This program is dedicated to players who are familiar with the world and mechanics of Dungeons and Dragons. If you are a new player, we will host a Session 0 on the first meeting of the month, August 3 at 3:00 p.m., 30 minutes before our first gaming session. This session is required for new players to create their character and to participate in the campaign for the rest of the summer.

This event is free, the space is wheelchair accessible, and it is open to Teens ages 10 and up. If you have any questions, see Miss Emmaline or Miss Aspen downstairs in the children’s room, or call (207) 985-2173. We look forward to seeing you there!

Come one, come all (even if you didn’t finish or disliked the book)! Join us on Tuesday, August 25 at 1 p.m. to discuss Yellowface by R.F. Kuang.

"/* Starred Review */ A struggling novelist passes off a manuscript left by her dead college friend in this excellent satire from Kuang (Babel, or the Necessity of Violence). Athena Liu, who is Chinese American, dies accidentally by choking at her Washington, D.C., apartment while celebrating a movie deal for one of her novels. At the celebration is June Hayward, who met Athena when they were at Yale together, and whose own career has stalled after her publisher folded.

Since then, while watching Athena’s meteoric rise, she came to find her old friend “unbearable.” In the commotion after Athena’s death, June, who is white, pilfers a manuscript from her desk. Titled The Last Front, it’s a historical novel about the role of Chinese laborers in WWI. After June gets a six-figure deal for it, she excises slurs used against Chinese laborers and adds a love story between a white woman and a Chinese soldier. Against objections from Candice Lee, a Korean American editorial assistant, the book goes to market, where it climbs up the bestseller list and attracts a vociferous backlash from the AAPI community, plus a scathing review from a prominent critic, who calls it a “white redemption” narrative.

June grows increasingly anxious as she’s accused online by of stealing Athena’s work, then starts thinking she’s seeing Athena at readings and around town. Kuang provides a sharp analysis of publishing’s blind spots and guides the plot toward a thrilling face-off between June and Athena’s “ghost.” This is not to be missed." -Publishers Weekly
