Dear KAN friends,
KAN Community Library is now in function in the new extension space, and we have begun the process of registering official memberships for KAN!
The library currently consists of 1210 e-catalogued books. It hosts a broad variety of books for kids and adults alike, including fiction and literary masterpieces, arts, philosophy, history, natural science, geography, social/political science and economics. As a treat for curious kids and home schooling families, there is a wealth of educational material for kids &youth - time-tested by our community elder and home schooling specialist Jean Reed. Special books on homesteading, child rearing, traditional crafts, wilderness skills and homeschooling are among some that can be hard to find from a regular municipal library. There is also an interesting variety of periodicals (an array of National Geographics from the 60’s until 90’s, Time Magazines stretching throughout the period of WWII and Mother Earth News dating back from the early days of the magazine).
KAN membership entitles you to borrowing these books from the library, along with other benefits. To register as a member or for more information about the library, please contact Shannon Herbert at 506 – 246 5204 or email speckledhengarden@gmail.com).
KAN team expresses warmest gratitude to our generous book donors and anyone else who wishes to donate books and /or funds in the future. This is an abundant community resource that Knowlesvilleans can be proud of!
(note: plastering is still going on in the KAN extension, so for a little while, the homesteading /arts/crafts department will still be covered to save the books from a wet clay decoration!)
