The Bradford County Library presents author Jim Remsen, discussing his historical novel "Visions of Teaoga" on Thursday, May 21, at 7:00 p.m.
"Visions of Teaoga" takes place in Tioga, northern Pennsylvania, where a tween girl visits a seemingly out-of-the-way town on a summer vacation and has close encounters with its amazing past. This saga blends history, suspense, and a coming-of-age journey. The 64th annual observance of the National Day of Prayer will take place, May 7th, and be observed locally on the steps of the Bradford County Courthouse in Towanda at noon. This year’s theme, “Lord, Hear Our Cry,” is based on the scripture in I Kings 8:28 - “Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is praying in your presence this day.” In honor of the event, the County Commissioners will be issuing a Proclamation, designating May 7th as a Day of Prayer in Bradford Co.
These are some of the many new items added to the Bradford County Library collection in April.
