For the past month, the library has been taking part in One Book, One Coast, which is a book club for the entire West Coast. The book being read this year is "They Called Us Enemy." The book focuses on Executive Order 9066.

On Wednesday, June 3 from 5:30-7 PM, the library will host a special event that reflects on the book, as well as a presentation that will feature activities, actual items from one family's days in the confinement sites, as well as a short video on the present-day memorial of the confinement sites, Ireicho.

This event is free to attend. Reading the book is not required to attend. To learn more, call 209-966-2140.

Check out our Community Cookbook Project next time you stop into the Mariposa Library. On the wall near the circulation desk, we have a beautiful display of books related to foods, cooking, etc.

We also have a Community Cookbook in a binder, which patrons can browse and make photocopies of when they find a recipe that interests them.

Finally, we have some Native American recipe food cards unique to our area available as well. These cards were donated by Mariposa County Public Health.

It's all part of getting to know one another and sharing foods and meals that we enjoy. Stop by and check it out! The library is located at 4978 10th Street.

The library will hold a livestream event with celebrity George Takei, who will be speaking about his book, "They Called Us Enemy." It will take place Sunday, May 31 at 2PM at the library, located at 4978 10th Street.

The event is free to attend and will be shown on a large screen TV. There is no registration required.

Takei appeared in more than 40 feature films and hundreds of TV episodes. He will be speaking in conversation with LA County Librarian Dr. Skye Patrick, and Long Beach Public Library Director Cathy de Leon, about the experiences that led to the creation of his memoir.

This is the culminating experience in the One Book, One Coast initiative, which is a book club that spans the entire West Coast. Mariposa County Library has been participating this spring, making copies of Takei's book available to our patrons.

Our Artificial Intelligence class has been in high demand. Our instructor, Jon Wurl, is willing to host another month of it.

On the first four Tuesdays in June, Jon will hold the class from 2-3 p.m. It is free to attend, but registration is required, and space is very limited due to the demand.

The class is beneficial for learners of all knowledge levels. Sign up to learn the basics of AI -- how it can benefit us, and even the dangers of it.
