Pam and the Witch, Genealogy, Debbie, Megan, and More

Debbie Has Left the Building

Our long-time cataloger, Debbie, has retired.  She's taking her last week as vacation time. We wish her all the best in retirement and hope she will enjoy her time with Allie and Brian.

A job description has been posted at our website.  We hope to have someone in place before the first of the year.

Pam Neal presents "The Bell Witch" Legend!!!

When:  October 31, 2015 | 12 pm
Where:  Birthplace of Country Music Museum 

During Halloween week, both kids and adults can come by the Birthplace of Country Music Museum to hear spooky and music-related local tales.

The museum will also host a retelling of “The Bell Witch” legend suitable for all ages on Saturday, October 31 at 12 noon. Free and open to the public, this event is the perfect way for families to end their morning after Pumpkin Palooza at the Farmers’ Market and trick-or-treating on State Street. Bristol Public Library children’s librarian Pam Neal will entertain with this wonderful spooky tale, and there will be candy for your little trick-or-treaters.

(The above is from Believe in Bristol.  We know Pam works with YA department, not children's.  However, the exclamation points in the heading ARE mine!)
