SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss Sunward by William Alexander! \nCaptain Tova Lir chose a life as a courier rather than get involved in her family’s illustrious business in politics. Set in humanity’s far future\, hiring a planetary courier is essential for delivering private messages across the stars. Encouraged by friends\, Tova begins mentoring baby bots\, juvenile AI who are developmentally in their teens\, and trains them how to interact within society essentially becoming their foster mom. Her latest charge\, Agatha Panza von Sparkles\, named herself on their first run from Luna to Phoebe station. But on their return\, they encounter a derelict spaceship and a lurking assassin\, igniting a thrilling chase across the solar system. Tova and Agatha’s daring actions leave Agatha’s mind vulnerable\, relying on Tova’s former AI pupils for help. As Tova starts gathering her scattered family around her\, she is chased through the solar system by forces who want her captured and her family erased \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Talking About Tech: What is WiFi?
DESCRIPTION:Illustration AI-generated with Google Gemini.  Can you spot the signs? \nBring your tech questions and answers to a new monthly series for technology help. Fourth Saturdays from 10:30 to noon at Brooks Memorial Library. \nThis month’s spotlight topic: how do our devices connect\, actually?\nUsing the phone used to be simple: if it was plugged into the phone jack in the wall\, you could make and receive phone calls.  (Even if the power went out!)  These days\, it all seems a lot more complicated\, especially adding home and mobile internet into the mix. \nHow does my phone get my phone calls?  What’s Wi-Fi?  Is it the same as cellular?  What’s Wi-Fi Calling?  What about the “data” part of my cell plan?  What’s Bluetooth?  What does Airplane Mode do? \nDo I have a router?  A modem? If my phone plugs into that box my internet service provider sent me\, is it still a landline? \nHow can I get signal in the dead zone at my place? \nDo I need to care about any of this?!? \nJoin us as we cut through the jargon and get to the bottom of it all. \nWhat is Talking About Tech?\nIt’s what you want to make it!  The loose structure is an interactive gathering a bit like a book club crossed with a crafting group\, with a touch of a drop-in bike repair clinic.  Each session will begin with a 30-minute guided discussion around a tech topic of interest. Then we’ll go where the conversation takes us. Maybe we’ll flow to related topics\, or perhaps someone will have a question that takes us in an entirely different direction.  We’ll try to leave time for peer support\, breaking into small groups or one-on-one sessions where we can help each other through the daily frustrations of our increasingly digital lives.  Bring your phone\, tablet\, or laptop\, and something that’s been stumping you! \n
