Halloween Month Music
October is coming and that means it's one of my favorite times of the year: Halloween Month! 31 days of build-up to one spooktacular night of candy, costumes, and creeps. In order to get into the holiday spirit, the library is providing a couple of fun Halloween themed programs, so if you're feeling brave enough you should be sure to join us for some spooky fun. And while you're at it, why not stop by the library to pick up some spooky soundtracks? We have music from classic horror and suspense films, as well as some of the old classics to chill your bones.

And, of course, if you don't know much about anime, but are interested in it, why not give one of the titles on this list a try?

Remembering David Bowie (1947-2016)
David Bowie is a legend. And like all legends, even though he is gone, that doesn't mean that he'll be forgotten. Now, before we get started, I'd like to preface this by saying that I was never a Bowie fan. That doesn't mean I hated him--I just never had the chance to check him out. And now, I feel really sad that I've waited until now to really look into the work of a man who is truly regarded as an amazing artist.
