The last and largest segment of the Lincoln Public Library’s fire suppression system is complete, and the library is grateful to residents for funding this important safeguard for staff and patrons. To say thank-you, the library will host a musical cabaret and a taste of a savory “Lincoln tart” provided by Aka Bistro on Wednesday, Oct. 8 from 2-6 p.m.
Musical performances will be arranged by Brad Meyer and will include musicians Peg Espinola, Kathy Hoben, Wanda Metcalf, Carolyn Waters, David Fishken and Ellen Groves. Brad Meyer will also perform with Amy Lohman and Mel Green. Stroll through the library and revisit your favorite areas, say hi (and thanks) to the staff who worked hard to provide exceptional services during the construction, and say hello to several new library staff members: part-time Reference Librarians Kate Tranquada, Janet Spiller and Sarah Hogan; Alyssa Freden, Head of Technical Services, and newly promoted Assistant Director Lisa Rothenberg.
