We Are Stars!

The Indian Lake Library is proud to be among 37 libraries in New York State that is a “Star” Library.    This designation is based on circulation, programming, visits and public internet use. Next year additional measures for ebooks, website and wifi will be considered.  We want to know how we can continue to be the library you need.  Let us know!!

INDIAN LAKE WRITERS’ GROUP Monthly Newsletter

INDIAN LAKE WRITERS’ GROUP
Monthly Newsletter      October, 2013       Donna Bradley           LXXXV

Is there a better way to spend a Wednesday afternoon than sitting around a library table sharing thoughtful ideas, personal memoirs, or Adirondack experiences?  I believe that all who attend our Writers’ Group gatherings will agree that they come away inspired and filled with good humor. Our monthly meetings offer pleasant conversation and good comradeship.

Our first discussion concerned our up and coming brand new Chap Book.  We are in the process of collecting pieces for submission and thinking about the title we will give it.  The book’s theme will revolve around the one unifying trait which is that we all feel a strong connection to the Adirondacks.  All ideas and types of writing will be acceptable.Continue reading
