For March there are 2
gauntlets. The first is another either/or proposition and the second is tied to
a March holiday and an author’s nationality.
The either/or is either James Patterson or Terry Pratchett. Patterson celebrates his birthday on March 22nd, while Pratchett died on the 12th of March last year. Both of these authors are well represented in our collection and you should have no problem finding something to read no matter what format you prefer.
The second gauntlet is tied to Saint Patrick’s Day. The Friends of the Library will host the Vulcan Eegits on the 10th. To get in the spirit before (or after) the concert you are tasked with reading an Irish author. For this quest the author must be born/have citizenship in Ireland not just write about Ireland. There will be a list of authors who qualify in the notebook found in the Reference department. Some examples to start with are Cecelia Ahern, Maeve Binchy, and Frank Delaney.
Of course the Friends program on March 10th will qualify for the Friends’ Library After Hours Event in the Bonus Events part of the challenge. The concert will start at 6:30 and like all library functions is free and everyone is invited. Also this month will be a chance to receive credit for a DPL Family Movie Night Extravaganza on Thursday, March 24th. The movie will be an animated film about the voices in your head and will also start at 6:30. We hope you can join us for one or both of these events.
Happy Reading!
