[Sherry, Doyenne]

Since there seem to be no objections, I will finalize this list.

[Joan]

Thanks for organizing it all. I’m looking forward to several of these.

[Barbara]

Thanks, Sherry. You did a great job. Everything is fine for me.

[Carol]

My library system does not have The Moviegoer. And I don’t have audible. I will be forego this one. I will follow the discussion.

[Barbara]

Do you have interlibrary loan availability, Carol? I get a lot of books that way.

[Carol]

I checked the city and the county, no go. The OC county system has a few copies, but I no longer live in that county. And they don’t loan to other counties. I did find it on a used book site. I prefer reading on the kindle, I am still debating getting the book.

[Lyn]

Carol, I checked and The Moviegoer is readily available on Library2Go (I download books from there to my Kindle). It's worth checking if your library is one that subscribes to this service.

It doesn’t. But thanks

[Martha]

I've got the list and am ready to go!

[Barbara]

Hi Martha, be sure and look for the July to December schedule that is posted in this conference too!

[Martha]

Thanks, Barbara! I made a screenshot and am ready to go!
