Do you have stories you would like to put in writing? They could be stories about growing up, stories about a fictitious village like Ontario, or stories about the past or future. Let’s create a community book of stories – true or not – about the Ontario area. Bring a friend and join us at the library at 12:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31, as we brainstorm what a community book could contain.

Trick-or-treaters are invited to stop in the library for a treat on Halloween, during trick-or-treat hours. Don’t forget your costume.

The movie also can be viewed at 11:30 a.m. at the library immediately before the discussion Nov. 12.
