March brings a new logo and several collaborations with local agencies. We are hosting the SB Energy Prize workshop called "Reduce the Juice!", the SB Land Trust's "Edible Landscaping" and showing the VT Public TV special The Cookie Thief. Book groups this month travel back in time to 18th century England and Los Alamos during WWII. On our web page you can now access e-magazines including Entrepreneur, Motor Trend and Creative Knitting. We will be starting a Visioning process this month, and you can help by going to our web page and adding photos to our "Go Wild!" Pintrest page to illustrate what you'd like to see happening in our library of the future. We're also trying to hit 500 "Likes" on FB, so please visit us on FB too. What an exciting time!
