More than just books, this is not your grandmother's library!
Listen to Jeff Peterson's 'Slack Key Travels' for the first 20 minutes, then join Lois in finding out about the library systen in our county. Regional Director Scott Love tells of alternate ways to satisfy our word-fix -- e-books, audio books, and interlibrary loan -- as well as finding information online using the Library's computers. The Yolo County Library system also has programs to help us use new technology (such as classes on computer use) or learn to read (such as 'Mother Goose on the Loose' reading times) or help other people (such as the book repair team, or Friends of the Library).
Although old-fashioned 'bookmobiles' are no longer used by modern libraries, Yolo County has come up with two innovative ways to distribute materials to residents who have trouble getting to the library building -- a BIKE bookmobile and books-by-mail.

Well, here we are again with my stories from the book I wrote...it was a whole lot of typing. This week we cover real facts about Old Sacarmento, back then Sacramento City, and use the Widow Chambers (fictional) to tell the human story. This story is about the theatre in the 1849-51 Gold Rush time in the rough.
