X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Please register to join us for an online d
 iscussion of <i>The Library Book</i>&nbsp\;by Susan Orlean.</p>\n<p>On the
  morning of April 29\, 1986\, a fire alarm sounded in the Los Angeles Publ
 ic Library. As the moments passed\, the patrons and staff who had been cle
 ared out of the building realized this was not the usual fire alarm. As on
 e fireman recounted\, "Once that first stack got going\, it was 'Goodbye\,
  Charlie.'" The fire was disastrous: it reached 2000 degrees and burned fo
 r more than seven hours. By the time it was extinguished\, it had consumed
  four hundred thousand books and damaged seven hundred thousand more. Inve
 stigators descended on the scene\, but more than thirty years later\, the 
 mystery remains: Did someone purposefully set fire to the library--and if 
 so\, who?</p>\n<p>Weaving her lifelong love of books and reading into an i
 nvestigation of the fire\, award-winning&nbsp\;<em>New Yorker</em>&nbsp\;r
 eporter and&nbsp\;<em>New York Times</em>&nbsp\;bestselling author Susan O
 rlean delivers a mesmerizing and uniquely compelling book that manages to 
 tell the broader story of libraries and librarians in a way that has never
  been done before.</p>\n<p>Please visit www.bettendorflibrary.com/adult-pr
 ograms for more information.</p>\n<p>Books are available on a first-come b
 asis at the Information Desk. You may also call the Library at 563-344-417

 g will take place online via GoToMeeting.&nbsp\; After registering\, you w
 ill receive an email with the GoToMeeting login information on the day bef
 ore the discussion.</p>\n<p>This program is funded by the Friends of the B
