SUMMARY:March Adult Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Walnut Library Book Club \nMarch 26 at 7pm \nEleanor Oliphant is completely fine by GAIL HONEYMAN. \nNo one’s ever told Eleanor that life should be better than fine. \nMeet Eleanor Oliphant: She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she’s thinking. Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions\, where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza\, vodka\, and phone chats with Mummy. \nBut everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond\, the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office. When she and Raymond together save Sammy\, an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk\, the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living. \nAnd it is Raymond’s big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged one. \nSoon to be a major motion picture produced by Reese Witherspoon\, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is the smart\, warm\, and uplifting story of an out-of-the-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes… \nThe only way to survive is to open your heart.

SUMMARY:9 to 5: The Story of a Movement
DESCRIPTION:Registration will be limited to 3000 total.\nRegister here \nWhen Dolly Parton sang “9 to 5\,” she was doing more than just shining a light on the fate of American working women. Parton was singing the true story of a movement that started with 9to5\, a group of Boston secretaries in the early 1970s. Their goals were simple—better pay\, more advancement opportunities\, and an end to sexual harassment—but their unconventional approach attracted the press and shamed their bosses into change. Featuring interviews with 9to5’s founders\, as well as actor and activist Jane Fonda\, 9to5: The Story of a Movement is the previously untold story of the fight that inspired a hit and changed the American workplace. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe recording can be viewed starting at 2pm\, Friday\, March 21 through 11:59\, Sunday\, March 23. Registrants will receive an email with a special link to the performance.

SUMMARY:Adult Book Club-The Woman All Spies Fear
DESCRIPTION:Elizebeth Smith Friedman had a rare talent for spotting patterns and solving puzzles. These skills led her to become one of the top cryptanalysts in America during both World War I and World War II. \nShe originally came to code breaking through her love for Shakespeare when she was hired by an eccentric millionaire to prove that Shakespeare’s plays had secret messages in them. Within a year\, she had learned so much about code breaking that she was a star in the making. She went on to play a major role decoding messages during WWI and WWII and also for the Coast Guard’s war against smugglers. \nElizebeth and her husband\, William\, became the top code-breaking team in the US\, and she did it all at a time when most women weren’t welcome in the workforce. \nAmy Butler Greenfield is an award-winning historian and novelist who aims to shed light on this female pioneer of the STEM community.

SUMMARY:Slowing Down with Amy Tan
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time\nFeb 19\, 2025 07:00 PM\n\n\nTo register click here\n\n\nDescription\nNational Humanities Medal winner and bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club\, Amy Tan joins us to share on her body of work and reflect on the wonder of slowing down and savoring the quiet moments. Her connection to nature is captured in her latest\, The Backyard Bird Chronicles\, a collection of sketches and essays which debuted at #1 on both the New York Times and the Indie bestseller list.\n\nBorn in the U.S. to immigrant parents from China\, Tan’s first bestselling novel\, The Joy Luck Club\, offered a look at the immigration experience from the perspective of mothers and daughters. Other New York Times best-sellers followed\, including The Kitchen God’s Wife\, The Hundred Secret Senses\, The Bonesetter’s Daughter\, Saving Fish from Drowning\, and The Valley of Amazement. Tan is also the author of two children’s books\, a memoir\, and other works. In keeping with her love of science and childhood love of doodling\, she recently took up nature journal sketching. When she found herself overwhelmed by our increasingly divisive culture\, she turned to nature and the world of bird life outside her own window.\n\nThis event is made possible by Illinois Libraries Present (ILP)\, a statewide collaboration among public libraries offering premier events. ILP is funded in part by a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library\, a department of the Office of Secretary of State\, using funds provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services\, under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act.\n\nILP is committed to inclusion and accessibility.
