1 Newsletter July 2016 Dinner at the Rex Benefit For Burney Library The Friends of the Intermountain Libraries Board of Directors and volunteers will host Dinner at the Rex on Sunday, September 25, FOIL s volunteers will bring their best tablewaiting skills to this benefit for the Burney Library because they will be the ones serving your meal! What makes this such a special event is that FOIL gets to keep all the tips given by hungry diners. FOIL suggests tipping early and often: perhaps a tip when your server brings the water. Another tip for service when the salad comes. The entrée deserves a special tip. Perhaps a generous tip for your server s big smile when asking are you enjoying everything? Salad, entrée and cookie will be served for the price of $15.00 (plus tax) per person. Entrée selection will be announced soon. Beverages are an additional charge. There will be two seatings, one at 5:30PM and the second at 7:00PM.Tickets are available now from FOIL board members or at the library: call Buy your tickets early as the previous dinner was a sell-out. Come to the Rex on September 25 for a great meal. Take-out dinners will also be available. Unable to come? FOIL will also graciously accept your generous donation anyway! Enjoy the dinner, laugh much and tip generously it s all for the Library! Inside the FOIL Newsletter Dinner at the Rex...Page 1 Capital Campaign Update..Page 1 FOIL Memberships...Page 3 Amazon Smile Donations.Page 4 Your Library...Page 5 Vol. 18 No. 1 Capital Campaign Update FOIL kicked off its New Burney Library Now! campaign in November A location and building were identified: the current Intermountain Physical Therapy building. Shasta County gave its approval of the building, and has stated its intent that the $400,000 the Supervisors set aside in January 2014 can go towards its purchase. There is some confusion currently due to the fact that Intermountain Physical Therapy has closed its doors and a new business is moving into the building. This is correct: the Ropers, (the owners of the building) did lease the building for a new gym with the stipulation that the County can still purchase the building when FOIL s Capital Campaign has enough funds. This is a win-win-win situation in that the Ropers will have an income from the building, a new business will open soon, and FOIL has more time to raise the necessary funds. An additional $450,000 is needed for remodeling, improvement and fixtures to make the building into the library the community needs. In early November letters were sent to supporters requesting monetary pledges for the campaign. As of this newsletter, the total of pledged and donated money is over $35,000. Add to that the money that FOIL has been saving and the total comes to almost $90,000. FOIL is currently filling out grant applications. They will also be approaching large local businesses and national businesses with a local presence to seek their assistance in meeting the goal. Your assistance is vital. If you have not yet pledged your monetary support to the New Burney Library campaign, please ask at the library for a pledge form. Won t you commit today to this important community project?
2 Friends F O I L Reading and crafts for toddlers and preschoolers to enjoy with their parents every Wednesday at 11:00AM. Page 2 Main & Tamarack Burney USED BOOKS FOR ADULTS & CHILDREN HARDCOVERS PAPERBACKS AUDIO BOOKS OPEN Friday & Saturday 10-1 July 15 & 16, July 29 & 30 August 12 & 13, August 26 & 27 CALL THE LIBRARY FOR OTHER DATES OR TO ADD YOUR NAME TO THE LIST ALL PROCEEDS GO TO BURNEY LIBRARY The FOIL Newsletter is published 4 times a year by Friends of the Intermountain Libraries Inc, a California non-profit corporation dedicated to the support of our public library. Our membership believes in the importance of libraries for the enlightenment, education, and well-being of the community. Our tireless volunteers and our generous members and supporters are the backbone of the Burney Branch Library. The FOIL Board meets monthly at the Burney Library. While meetings are scheduled at the annual election meeting in June, they are subject to change. Please call any Board member or the Library for meeting information. FOIL receives many book donations from our generous supporters. We go through the books to see if they re needed on Burney s shelves first, then we may give some to other libraries. FOIL may sell some at the library or at our bookstore, Friends Main Street Books. FOIL truly appreciates these donations, but there are some things we simply can t accept: Book Donation Guidelines Books without covers, or that are ripped or have other damage. Soiled or moldy books, or books that have been wet. Even if they re now dry, they will smell musty and/or have mold. That mold will transfer to other items Books that have mouse or insect damage or droppings. If they ve been stored in your garage for years please inspect them. Books from smoking households Readers Digest Condensed Books Encyclopedias all types Old Diet/Nutrition Books Textbooks Videos PLEASE don t bring us any of these items. We will have to dispose of them, which twice defeats the purpose of your donation since we can t use them and will have to pay to get rid of them. We can accept only clean items. You may bring your items to the Burney Library during open hours only: please don t leave them outside the library or the bookstore.

5 Your Library F O I L New summer blockbusters on the shelves include The Games by James Patterson, The Fireman by Joe Hill and End of Watch by Stephen King. Justin Cronin completes his Passage trilogy with City of Mirrors. Returning characters include Anna Pigeon in Boar Island by Nevada Barr, Sean Stranahan in Buffalo Jump Blues by Keith McCafferty and Chief Inspector Gamache in A Great Reckoning by Louise Penny. Joseph Finder s intelligence operative Nick Heller is back to save the world in Guilty Minds, and Daniel Silva s art restorer/spy/ assassin Gabriel Allon returns in The Black Widow. Summer beach romances include All Summer Long by Dorothea Benton Frank, First Comes Love by Emily Giffin and Once A Rancher by Linda Lael Miller. Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg team up again for The Pursuit, a Fox and O Hare comedy/mystery. Bay of Sighs is the second book of Nora Roberts Guardians trilogy. The Girls by Emma Cline is the book getting the most buzz this summer. It s set in the 1960s and involves a Manson-like cult. It s a coming-of-age story, told in two time periods: the first of a teenaged girl looking for belonging and identity, primed and ready to be seduced by what she imagines as freedom but instead is pure horror. The second is that of the same person, now middle-aged, looking back on what she became and what she learned. Barkskins is the latest novel from the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author of The Shipping News and Brokeback Mountain, Annie Proulx. It s the story of two penniless young Frenchmen, René Sel and Charles Duquet, who arrive in New France in the late 17th century. They are indentured for three years to become woodcutters: barkskins. Their experiences and choices echo down three centuries to their current descendants. Proulx s vivid characters inhabit a historical novel with global sweep, ending with today s most pressing issues. Josie s broken up with her slacker husband, she s tormented by having encouraged a patient to sign up for the Marines who is then killed in action; and a malpractice suit ends her dental practice. She packs up her RV and heads for Alaska with her 2 kids. Author Dave Eggers writes a social commentary on modern society in Heroes of the Frontier. Luisa "Lu" Brandt was elected State s Attorney, the very same office her father held years before. Eager to escape from his looming shadow she takes the case of a mentally unstable drifter killing a local young woman a slam dunk. But new revelations force Lu to question events and memories of her own past in Wilde Lake by Laura Lippman. NYU professor Jeremy O'Keefe has returned from 10 years at Oxford University. He wanders the nighttime streets of New York convinced that he's Continued on page 6 Page 5
6 just an anonymous shadow in the city crowds-that he is, in fact, "no one." But when he notices that he is being followed and starts receiving records of his online activity in the mail, he must dig into his past to discover what he did to occasion this notice. Is he deceiving himself or us? I Am No One by Patrick Flanery is a disturbing look at present day surveillance and manipulation. New in nonfiction is 32 Y olks: From My Mother s Table to Working the Line by Eric Ripert, the talented and elegant chef of New York s Le Bernardin. He tells the story of a heartbreaking childhood, apprenticeships in two of France s most grueling kitchens, hard work and later success with charm and humility, guaranteed to inspire. If Elvis was the king of rock n roll, then Sam Phillips was the kingmaker. The music that he shaped in the tiny Memphis studio with poor white country boy artists as diverse as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis, infused with the black Southern blues sound had never been heard before. Phillips vision changed music forever. Peter Guralnick s Sam Phillips: The Man Who Invented Rock n Roll is exhaustively researched, with personal observations and in-depth interviews. It s an amazing story of a man who started a revolution. Astrophysicist Neil degrasse Tyson is the creator of the popular podcast and National Geographic channel talk show Startalk, in which he examines and explains the mysteries of the universe in an engaging, humorous manner that listeners love. Now there s the book: StarTalk: Everything You Ever Need to Know About Space Travel, Sci-Fi, the Human Race, the Universe, and Beyond, with facts and quotes and photographs that are endlessly entertaining and enlightening. It s a phrase that s instantly recognizable: a diamond is forever. But where did that phrase come from? How and why did the diamond become our symbol of commitment and marriage? Rachelle Berstein s entertaining and wellresearched Brilliance and Fire: A Biography of Diamonds examines the cultural history of the gemstone from a piece of carbon to the most popular and coveted luxury item. The book takes us from Cecil Rhodes and the mines of South Africa to the De Beers Company and its extraordinary advertising campaigns. The stories of the jewelers who transformed the stones, like Harry Winston and Tiffany, and the customers who bought the creations are also told. More than 300 million people visit America s national parks each year. The parks are grand, they are inspiring. They offer a sense of wonder and peace in an ever overstimulated world. They are also under siege, from pollution, underfunding, over-use. The Hour of Land a Personal Topography of America s National Parks by Terry Tempest Williams is a collection of lyrical and eloquent essays examining the creation of the parks, their grandeur and their meaning to the soul of America. Author Mary Roach examines the science behind ordinary things: eating, (Gulp) sex, (Bonk) space travel, (Packing For Mars) and cadavers (Stiff) among others. Her latest book is Grunt: the Curious Science of Humans at War. She investigates the world of soldiers to learn things like how prevalent is food poisoning and diarrhea among special ops soldiers? How do you make and test clothing that resists rain but is breathable enough in 100-degree heat? How do you minimize the threats of noise, heat, germs, panic? Her quick and curious mind zigs and zags through military history and military science coming up with amazing tidbits. She loves her subjects and makes them fascinating and endearing to her readers. Page 6
7 How we get ourselves and our stuff from here to there - cars, trucks, trains, ships: that s the subject of Door to Door: The Magnificent, Maddening, Mysterious World of Transportation by Edward Humes. Humes examines how we got to this place where transportation dominates our existence. It s simultaneously a miracle and a disaster, getting more complicated daily. He sees us at a fork in the road, either Carmageddon or Cartopia, and it makes a fascinating story. For all the comfort of modern society, its "profound alienation" has led in America to income inequality, behaviors destructive to the environment, high rates of suicide and mental illness (including PTSD), and toxic divisiveness and rampage shootings. The cure could be to focus on the good of community. So postulates Sebastian Junger in Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. It s a short book combining history, psychology and anthropology to understand the close bonds necessary for human well-being. New healthy living books on the shelves are The 8- Week Blood Sugar Diet: How to Beat Diabetes Fast (and Stay Off Medication) by Michael Mosely, What Do I Eat Now?: A Step-by-Step Guide to Eating Right with Type 2 Diabetes by Patti Bazel Geil and The American Heart Association Low-Fat, Low- Cholesterol: Delicious Recipes to Help Reduce Bad Fats and Lower Your Cholesterol. New picture books for children include Lady Liberty s Holiday by Jen Arena. Much as the Statue of Liberty loves welcoming people to America, standing in one spot for over 100 years has left her with a stiff neck and a cramp in her leg, not to mention pain in her arm from holding that torch so high. Plus she s bored seeing the same New York skyscrapers. Her pigeon friend Moe suggests she take a holiday, and so she does. She starts at the Jersey shore, then Cape Cod and Niagara Falls, and heads west from there. Meanwhile, New York s 4th of July festivals may be cancelled because nobody feels like celebrating without Lady Liberty. It s a fun cross-country romp, combining geography and history. In The Airport Book by Lisa Brown we see the workings of an airport by way of a family leaving for vacation. Readers follow the family through lines, baggage check, security, waiting, flying and arriving. More than just a book about an airport of planes, it s an introduction to the bigger world, with clear comforting text and lots of information. Learning numbers and exploring healthy fruits and vegetables is a winning combination in 1Big Salad, A Delicious Counting Book by Juana Medina. The photographs are enhanced with drawing: one avocado becomes a deer; two radishes become mice; three peppers become monkeys all the way to ten clementine kitties, then combine with flying walnuts (!) into a delicious salad. A little yellow eyeglasswearing fish catches the attention of a giant octopus in Poor Little Guy by Elanna Allen. The octopus thinks the little fish is so cute he says I ll bet you even taste cute. Is this the end? The little guy has a big surprise for the octopus, but there s an even bigger surprise at the end for the poor little fish. Can someone love books too much? See what happens when one rabbit s passion for books leads him into a life of crime in Wanted: Ralfy Rabbit, Book Burglar by Emily Mac- Kenzie. Page 7
