FOL BOOK CLUB PICKS FIRST SELECTION


The Newly formed Friends of the Big Timber Carnegie Library Book Club met for the first time on Tuesday evening, January 12, and chose "Where the River Runs North" as their initial reading assignment. The Friends of the Library group will next meet on Tuesday Feb. 9th downstairs at the library to talk about the book. Everyone is welcome to attend the club's session, which will start at 6:30 p.m. Former librarian Lauren McMullen is scheduled to lead the discussion that night. "Where the River Runs North" was written by Sam Morton. The book is fiction but based on fact; the historical tale focuses on the history of the Absaraka region in southern Montana and northernWyoming. The narrative takes the reader from pioneer life though modern development of this area to the south and east of our own community.
Questions about the club or the focus books can be addressed to librarians Kate Lewis, Jacque Scott or FOL President Kathy Jones. The library's telephone number is 932-5608.
