Upcoming Events

On Friday, October 5th, we enjoyed an informative discussion of financial issues with money expert Liz Weston. The Q & A portion of the evening was especially useful to those in attendance as they took advantage of the opportunity to ask questions specific to their situation. Liz was kind enough to speak about Genesee District Library in the above video.

If you missed this event there are still many more taking place in your community libraries.
