Hello to the new season! As we celebrate all that is astronomical this year, let's look at the Equinoxes. The #SeptemberEquinox is the first day of fall in the Northern Hemisphere and spring in the Southern Hemisphere. This year it is September 23rd. We welcome both pumpkin pie and spiced coffee, sunny days and fresh starts. Learn what's true and false about the equinox here: ow.ly/6QY450PzIFJ.

In September we celebrate two of the most iconic storytellers - Roald Dahl (September 13) and Agatha Christie (September 15). Happy Birthday to both. The RC library does not really focus on fiction (there is a great public library to handle that) but we do have about a dozen Agatha Christies'. My favorite is Elephants Can Remember. What's yours?
If you are looking for children’s or mystery classics to read explore #RoaldDahl, #AgathaChristie, and other classic authors in our @NewsBank "Literature" and "Books & Authors" Suggested Topics.
