Milo Free Public Library April news

MILO — Coming to the Milo Free Public Library Wednesday, April 17 from 6-7 p.m. Ed Rice former journalist, college instructor and author of “Baseball’s First Indian” published in 2003 is coming to discuss the legacies of Louis Sockalexis, the first known Native American to play professional baseball. The talk is in support of a special project to raise awareness about why this largely forgotten Maine historical figure is worthy of such respect. Hope to see you there.

Kathy’s pick is “I frequently tramped 8 or 10 miles through the deepest snow to keep an appointment with a beech-tree or a yellow birch, or an old acquaintance among the pines by Henry David Thoreau.” Come and check out the selected variety and you may find a new author.

We have many donated puzzles (500 to 1,000 pieces), DVDs, VHS movies and books on CD. They can be checked out just like a book.

Ongoing book sale, we are always adding new books for sale with quite a selection. Both hardbacks and paperbacks can be purchased for one thin dime each.

Summer hours are in effect, Monday, Wednesday and Friday 1-7 p.m. (closed Saturdays). Questions, call 943-2612 or email us at milolibrary@trcmaine.org.
