Nevins Winter Hours 
Mon. - Thurs. 9am-9pm
Fri. - 9am-5pm
Sat. - 9am-5pm  
We're just as excited as you are to hear what Punxatawney Phil says about our winter forecast....but is he a real climate scientist? Nope, he's a ground hog.  But we've been listening to him for years...Maybe it's time for some real science to back him up.  We'll be holding some science programs this month and for the next few months to celebrate ScienceQuest - Earth Sea and Sky.  Our fist program is this month, and we'll be setting them up during the rest of the year as well.  Hope to see you at one or all of our ScienceQuest Programs.  And be assured, we haven't forgotten all the rest of our favorite programs, author talks, book groups and those fantastic children's programs as well.

See you soon,   

Welcome Back Hank Phillipi Ryan
Saturday February 11 1pm

The Nevins Library is thrilled to welcome once again mystery author and television investigative journalist Hank Phillippi Ryan on Saturday, February 11th at 1pm.  She will be discussing her latest book, SAY NO MORE.  In this book, Boston reporter Jane Ryland reports a hit and run, which turns out to be more than just a car crash.  She's also working on a story about date rape on college campuses, but when she receives the anonymous message "Say No More", she is truly scared for her life.  Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing, and refreshments will be available.
