Life in Paris- Picture and Stories
 Tuesday, June 28th at 7 PM
Summer Reading program fun for adults begins with the presentation, "Life in Paris-Pictures and Stories." Informative and entertaining, Henry M. Smith, Emeritus Professor of the University of New Hampshire, provides a collection of images and stories collected over his many years of ongoing travel to French soil. He shares his keen interest in life in France, social and political, past and present-the bouquinistes, art and graffiti, his personal encounters, the open air markets, cemeteries, and so much more! This is a tale of adventures on the streets of Paris with even some French songs added to the mix.
Please register for this event and all the upcoming summer reading program events for adults by calling 673-2288, emailing library@amherst.lib.nh.us or online through our Calendar of Events.
This program is made possible by the University of New Hampshire Speaker's Bureau.

A Different World of Juicers...
Nothing quenches your thirst in the summer like a glass of freshly squeezed lemonade. Electric and manual juicers make it easy to squeeze juice faster, and frozen juice concentrate makes providing juice to a busy family in today's society an easier task. But, if you take a look at the June display at the Amherst Town Library, your eyes will be opened to a different world of juicers.
Reamers, also known to many as orange juice squeezers or juicers, are one of the fastest growing collectibles in America today. Reamers come in all type of materials -- woods, glass, metal ceramic, pottery, and most recently, plastic. Shapes vary from round, square, oblong, triangular to figurals, such as clowns, animals and people. There are one piece, two piece and three piece reamers. They come plain, fancy, engraved, embossed, frosted, hand-painted and trimmed in gold and silver.
The reamers in the display will give you a sampling of the various categories of reamers. They come from the collection of Mary Marsh, an Amherst resident and a past President of the National Reamer Collectors Association (NRCA). For more information, on the collecting, buying and selling of reamers, visit the NRCA website at www.reamers.org |

Remember, the library is a happening place and your library card is your ticket to free books, magazines, music, movies, Internet access, enriching programs and much more!
Sincerely,
Amherst Town Library
