Libraries Show What’s Growing in Somerset County
Agriculture plays an important role in Somerset County’s history. Even as the area has become increasingly suburbanized, over 8,000 acres of farmland have been preserved in the County, sometimes within steps of a subdivision.
To celebrate and recognize the role of agriculture during March, the Somerset County Agriculture Development Board (SCADB) is showing tools and artifacts used in farming, at several Somerset County Library System Branches (SCLS). Displays are now on view at the Bound Brook Memorial, Bridgewater and Manville Public Libraries through March 31. The Bound Brook Memorial Library will host a children’s event, “Fun in Farming” at 7 pm on March 27. Freeholder Mark Caliguire will be the guest reader during storytime, along with other activities.
“The Somerset County Agricultural Development Board (SCADB) is very excited to be working with the Somerset County Library System to show the extent and importance of agriculture in our County. We hope the public will learn about this very important industry through our displays and events in honor of National Agriculture Day,” Mark W. Kirby chair of the SCADB notes.
Questions? Call SCLS at (908) 526-4016 or visit the website at http://www.sclsnj.org.

Women's History Month & "The Boss" this week @ Warren Library
This week at the Warren Twp Library:
Adventurous Women who made a Difference: 7 PM, Thursday, March 6. As part of the library's celebration of Women's History Month, we welcome Penny Colman, author of award-winning biographies and social histories. Learn about the lives of eight amazing women from an Arctic explorer to a plant hunter who lived passionate, productive and adventurous lives. An engaging speaker, Penny Colman has appeared on TV and radio, including National Public Radio and on Book TV, C-Span2.
This year marks a notable milestone for New Jersey: its 350th birthday. On Saturday, March 8 at 2 PM we highlight a true contemporary NJ icon with Bruce Springsteen in Focus. Bruce may have been 'Born to Run,' but Debra L. Rothenberg was born to shoot. Debra is an award-winning photographer, who grew up in Bergen County and currently resides in New York City. She captured the energy of Bruce Springsteen and his connection to audiences around the world. For thirty-two years, Debra has photographed Bruce, in small clubs along the Jersey shore, and in national and international arenas and stadiums. Debra chronicles her photographic journey, attending many concerts all over the world, and shaping her life and career in the process.
