Are your kids running through books at warp speed these days?  Are you looking to buy oodles of books for homeschooling this year?  Are you a dedicated bargain hunter, always ready to learn new tricks to save big bucks?  Then you need Books on a Budget, a live Zoom webinar from Jessica Bon Durant, Youth Services Library Associate, mom to two voracious readers, new homeschooler, and budget shopper extraordinaire!

If you'd like to talk about homeschooling or just hear what others are thinking about school choices this fall, please join us on Sunday, July 19 at 2pm on Zoom. This talk is more freeform than our homeschool program in June, with your thoughts and questions determining the course of the discussion. The meet-up will be recorded and posted to the library's YouTubechannel.
