Peter de Seve Visits the Library

New Yorker illustrator (just one of his many artistic accomplishments) Peter de Seve hosted a special event for children at the Library on Sunday, December 3rd. After a quick discussion about what makes a great cover for the magazine, Mr. de Seve had the children create their own designs on actual New Yorker covers.




Nanny Coffee and Tour
On Wednesday, November 29, the librarians at the Children's Room welcomed nannies from 10 different countries and 4 different continents for a nanny coffee and tour. While the adults were given a full tour of the Library and all the wonderful services we offer, the children were attending a special story time. At the conclusion of the event, the nannies were given a New Canaan Library bag filled with library goodies.
