Meet the Bruce Springsteen Archives

Wednesday, June 4, 2:00pm in-person

The Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music (BSACAM) at Monmouth University preserves the legacy of Bruce Springsteen and celebrates the history of American music and its diversity of artists and genres. The collection holds close to 50,000 items dating from 1927 to the present. Monmouth University recently announced a new 30,000 square foot building to house the Archives, related exhibition galleries, and a 230 seat, state-of-the-art theater.

Community Scrapbook Night

Drop by the meeting rooms any time during this event to sit down and craft a scrapbook page for the EB community scrapbook! Completed pages will be collected and digitized for online access, as well as being assembled into a physical scrapbook that will be entered into the libary's collection like a time capsule for future generations.

Light snacks will be provided!

Hope

It has been a long winter: long nights, grey, cold, rainy, sad, isolating, endless.

But spring always returns. We are reminded that we come alive again by new growth, color, singing birds, longer days, warm sun, neighbors emerging, and happy hearts.

This is the cycle of life. Our dark days are enlightened by the hope of a new day.
When winter seems endless, spring impels us forward to joy.

Hope will never disappoint.

EB Repair Cafe

Sunday, June 8, 1:00-4:00pm

The East Brunswick Public Library, the East Brunswick Sustainability Task Force, and Alpha Delta Kappa want you to keep still usable items out of landfills. They are holding their second Repair Café at the library (2 Jean Walling Civic Center Drive) on Sunday, June 8 from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
A Repair Café is a community-based initiative to promote repairing household items instead of throwing them out. Community members can bring in items in need of repair to be fixed on the spot thanks to the help from volunteer repairers.
