We have great programming for adults in February. The
library will begin its annual Poetry Contest this month. Be sure to visit us
online or stop at the front desk for an entry slip and contest rules. All ages from Kindergarten-Adult can enter!
Why not start the New Year right
by volunteering for a local organization? In February, Spencer Public Library
is hosting a Volunteer Fair where organizations from our community will talk to
you about the opportunities they can provide. Learn a new skill, help your
community, and meet new people! Organizations at the Volunteer Fair are: Volunteer Network of Clay County, SAAC, CAASA, Love Takes Root, Clay
County Fair Association, Spencer Public Library Friends Group.
The Library will be showing the movie, The World of Henry Orient, starring Peter Sellers, Paula Prentiss,
and Angela Lansbury. A 1964 movie that is funny, charming, lively and
imaginative. Two starry-eyed schoolgirls spy, stalk, and scheme their way into
the life of a concert pianist in this wacky movie you won’t want to miss!
Our Book To Movie Club will watch the movie, The Taking of Pelham 123, a 1974
suspense film starring Walter Matthau, Robert Shaw, and Martin Balsam. A gang
of thugs hijack a subway train near New York’s Pelham Station and threaten to
kill one hostage a minute. It’s a race against the clock! You don’t have to
read the book to sign-up for the movie. Be sure to sign-up for the next Book
Into Movie, Wag the Dog, by Larry
Beinhart.
