What's Up With the Sun?
Join us in the library's community room to learn all about eclipses with NASA and SSI Ambassador Ron Provost! Attendees will receive a pair of solar eclipse viewing glasses to safely view the upcoming eclipse. [Eclipse glasses are NOT regular sunglasses; regular sunglasses, no matter how dark, are not safe for viewing the Sun]
