Happy retirement, Maggie Spiegel!!

Friends, have you ever popped into the North Amherst Library and interacted with the wonderful Maggie Spiegel? Perhaps you saw her smiling face around the Jones Library? Drop her a line and let her know how much she'll be missed. She's becoming a civilian after 20 years of working for the Jones Library.  

 

 

 

Congratulations on a well-earned break, Maggie!

Still strumming!

Jones Library is offering a Ukulele Strum Along every Sunday in April at 3 pm. Led by our wonderful Julie Stepanek using the Zoom platform, grab your ukulele - or any other instrument - and join us for a jam session.

Get your instrument (it doesn't have to be a ukulele) and join Julie for 40 minutes of singing and playing. Lyrics and ukulele chords provided. Participants are muted so you don't have to worry about how you sound :-)
