Greetings Readers!

I hope all is well in your world this fine summer evening! We've got just a few things of note for you this week -- we figured that after everything that's been going on in the town and in the world, perhaps you could use a break. But don't worry! A smaller update does not, and never will, mean less exciting events!

 Do you know, Readers, about the Moscow Public Library Book Group? Well you should! They meet on the 3rd Monday of every month at 6:30 pm at the Moscow Public Library. Their summer reading selections are as follows: June 19th - Outwitting History by Aaron Lansky; July 17th - The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler; August 21st - Running with Scissors: A Memoir by Augusten Burroughs; and September 18th - The Kite Runner by Khalid Hosseni. If you have any questions about the group, feel free to email Debra at indexer40@yahoo.com or Chris at chriss@latahlibrary.org.

Saturday, June 17th is the super special, one-day only Latah and Whitman Counties Computer Recycling Event! Recycling computers isn't cheap, Readers, as I'm sure you're aware. But Saturday, June 17th, it's half-off on the special summer Computer Recycling sale! Also, you can recycle any circut board or cell phone for free, and keyboards, mice, and speakers are only $0.25! So take this oppertunity to dispose of your old computers, monitors, laptops, printers, scanners, fax machines, keyboards, (electronic) mice, speakers, circut boards, or cell phones in the most environmentally friendly way possible! The planet will thank you, and so will Moscow Recycling! The building is located at 401 N. Jackson in Moscow. You can pre-register at 208-882-0590 (this is also the number to call for more information).

Readers, the Art Walk is coming! And Book People of Moscow is proud to once again host the Million Bead Project! This is a work of art done by McDonald Elementary and Moscow High School students along with artist Jeanne Leffingwell. Look for it when the Art Walk starts later in the summer! Remember, Readers - if you think of anything exciting to add to our little missives, please by all means send it to us. We are always happy to add events sent in by Alert Readers. And that is all for this time. As I said, a short update. We hope that you have a good evening, and a good week! Take care, Readers!
