Library book club meeting July 12
MEEKER | The Meeker Library book club will be reading “Anxious People” by Fredrik Backman. We will discuss the book on Monday, July 12 at 1 p.m. at the library. All are welcome to join in the fun.
Upcoming RBC Free Legal Clinic
MEEKER | The next free legal clinic will be Wednesday July 14, 2021, from 2-5 p.m. Contact the Meeker Public Library at 970-878-5911 to be added to the sign-up sheet. As a COVID work-around, instead of clinic patrons coming to your local public library (which may have limited access), your local library staff will schedule all appointments. It is especially important to provide a reliable phone number, so the volunteer attorney can call the clinic patron’s telephone directly, during scheduled clinic hours. Please contact your local library at 970-878-5911 to be added to the sign-up sheet. Space is limited.
