Great August events at the library included Milkwood Puppet Theater, Flyrod Crosby Day, and a reading by Alexandra Hinrichs, author of The Lobster Lady.









Created by StoryCorps, One Small Step is an effort to remind the country of the humanity in
all of us, even those with whom we disagree. The initiative brings strangers with different political views together to record a 50-minute conversation—not to debate politics, but to learn who we are as people.
One Small Step is based on contact theory, which states that a meaningful interaction
between people with opposing views can help turn “thems” into “us-es.” Its scientific and
systematic approach is supported by a group of advisors that includes scientists, researchers,
and psychologists.
To date, more than 3,400 people across 40 states have recorded a 50-minute One Small Step
interview. Together, we can show the country what it means to have the courage to listen. Your conversation can happen right here in the library. Sign up!
