This Week At Your Library: Feb. 2

Dear Library Member,

By now, many of you have heard of or tried
Tutor.com, the Library's new FREE online tutoring service.  Here are just a few comments from satisfied Old Bridge users:

"I love the tutors, they are so helpful for me and now I understand what I learned after the session. TUTOR.COM ROCKS!"

"AMAZING TUTOR!!! Takes the time to explain and review."

"This was really helpful and my tutor helped me solve the question, not just give me an answer."

Tutor.com is not just for students.  Adults can take advantage of resume help, job cover letter help and GED tutoring and much more.  Just click the Tutor.com icon and get started!  All you need is a library card.

 

 

On another note, New Jersey has so many diners it may be considered the diner capital of the world.  If you love diners as much as I do, you will enjoy our program on Saturday, February 7 at 2pm.  Michael C. Gabriele, author of The History of Diners in New Jersey, will tell you all about the history of these iconic food and social institutions so beloved here in the Garden State.

 

Have a safe and warm week everyone and see you in the Library!

 

Regards,
Nancy Cohen, Interim Director
