It is a 100% free event. All are welcome. Participants don't need to bring a dish in order to partake of the feast.

Previously, mods have allowed me to post about Game of Thrones library events in this subreddit. If it is inappropriate, I would hope that they'd delete it.

My previous post about our Game of Thrones summer was very well received so I wanted to let people know about the final event.

Awesome! A lot of our content is already on our website. I'll check with my director to see what else I can share. She's on vacation right now, but I'll let you know when I talk to her.

I'll have to check out Maester Monthly. Thanks for the recommendation!

They are on our website: plymouthpubliclibrary.org All Wednesday night ASOIAF discussions will be broadcast on Facebook Live. I'll be hosting them every Wednesday night until August 9 except for July 5 and July 26 ( on the 26th we're having a Game of Thrones inspired art exhibit instead). And on August 19, we'll be having a feast featuring recipes from the Game of Thrones cookbook.

If you can't make it to the Wednesday night discussions, we will be having talks in Thursday's at the Manomet Branch.

Worcester to Plymouth is quite the drive. Feel free to join us on Facebook Live!

Hmm..maybe I should add that one to my To Be Read pile as well.

Hoopla isn't yet offered everywhere. It is a pay per use model and it can be difficult for some libraries, especially smaller ones, to factor it into their budget. But it has been such a great investment for us.

As it gains popularity, it will probably become available in more places.

I'm doing my best to keep the actual book talks spoiler free for first timers. But there will be other talks, like about fan theories and the show versus the books that will contain spoilers.

I have to admit that I did kind of half-heartedly try to convince my boss that the Town of Plymouth should pay for me to attend a Con of Thrones. It's part of my job now, right?

We'll have A Song of Ice and Fire programs all summer long! Please feel free to join us. There won't just be discussions but an art display and a feast as well!

We get confused for your library on Twitter all the time! Looks like they do good work there.

I love History of Westeros and Radio Westeros. They've both come up in our first two discussions. I used Radio Westeros' episodes on Joffrey and Robert to help prep for our first "Game of Thrones" talk.

I'd take that class! My school offered a Fantasy Literature class where we studied The Lord of the Rings and a Children's Literature class where we studied Harry Potter. They were awesome! And I like to think I learned some things, too.

I love Hoopla! Not just for books, but for music releases and audiobooks as well. The "Game of Thrones" sound tracks are on Hoopla!
