Library Seeking Gently Used Magazine Donations

What do you do with your magazines when you are done reading them? If the answer is recycle them, how about donating them to the Long Hill Library instead? Many other library patrons enjoy reading magazines. The library sells them for ten cents, so your contribution will help the library as well as other library patrons.

We ask that the magazines you donate be no more than a year old, however, as older magazines are not very popular with other readers.

Thank you so much!

Why Take a Driver Safety Course at Long Hill Library?

Cars have changed. So have the traffic rules, driving conditions, and the roads you travel every day. Some drivers have never looked back since they got their first driver's licenses, but even the most experienced benefit from brushing up on their driving skills.

Why take a course? You can expect to learn current rules of the road, defensive driving techniques, and how to operate your vehicle more safely in today's increasingly challenging driving environment. You'll learn adjustments to accommodate common age-related changes in vision, hearing, and reaction time.

Completion of the course could lead to savings on auto insurance and possible reduction of driver’s license points.

Sound good? An AARP Defensive Driving course will be held at the Long Hill Township Library. The course is 6 hours in length and will be held over two Tuesdays, October 18 and 25 from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm.

Participants must attend both sessions to receive credit for the course.

The course will be conducted by AARP instructor Willy Parolari and is geared toward drivers age 50 and older (although drivers of all ages are welcome to attend.)

The course costs $12 for AARP members and $14 for nonmembers; participants must reserve their space and attend both sessions.

To register, call (908) 647-2088. The library is located at 917 Valley Road, Gillette, in the Long Hill Township Municipal Complex.

Locally Filmed Film WIN WIN at Long Hill Library

Join us at the Long Hill Library on Wednesday, Oct 3, or Saturday, Oct 22, for a screening of Win Win, a 2011 official Sundance Selected Film. Win Win is a sweet and funny movie starring Paul Giamatti. What makes it even more special for us is that it was written by New Providence attorney Joe Tiboni and filmed right here in NJ. Check out the scenes in New Providence and try to spot local sites!

Directed by Tom McCarthy (The Station Agent), "the comedy drama centers on a beleaguered attorney and part-time wrestling coach at New Providence HS who schemes to keep his practice from going under by acting as the legal caretaker of an elderly client. Mike Flaherty (Giamatti) thinks he has discovered the perfect loophole to keep his practice in business. But his brilliant plan hits an unexpected hitch when his client's troubled grandson shows up looking for a place to stay. With his home life in turmoil and both of his careers in jeopardy, Mike quickly realizes that he'll have to get creative in order to find a way out of his current predicament." -Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Win Win is rated R for language. View the trailer here:
