As technology advances it creates more problems for astronomers trying to understand the nature of the Universe. Satellites in orbit around the Earth have frequently caused streaks on photographs taken through large visible-light telescopes, but with the increase of large “satellite constellations” we are now also seeing interference at radio wavelengths. St. Lawrence University astronomer Jeffrey Miller will talk about some of these sources of radio telescope interference, and the measures that astronomers are undertaking to protect the darkness of the night. |

Registration required: Adirondack Sky Center & Observatory Aileen O'Donoghue—ASC&O Board Member, St. Lawrence University On the 8,800 foot peak of Cerro Pachón in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory has begun it’s ten-year mission to observe the southern sky. The unique, specially designed 3,000 megapixel camera sensor array will conduct a wide-field survey of the universe that will be deeper and wider than all previous surveys combined. Unlike other telescopes, Rubin’s telescope will not target specific objects, but will survey the sky in a predetermined cadence of observations at different sky positions in a varying pattern of order, duration, and filters. In this way, it will obtain images applicable to different scientific questions from finding slow-moving asteroids near Earth to characterizing distant galaxies and quasars forming near the beginning of time. The repetition of observations over ten years will allow astronomers to spot changes in appearance and behavior of objects too slow to be detected by traditional observatories. |

Register and ask questions of the author here: https://libraryc.org/lakegeorgelibrary/99211 – Registration required: Crandall Public Library You are invited to join us online and be one of the first to hear from Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai about her astonishing memoir, Finding My Way. Malala reintroduces herself to the world, sharing how she navigated life as someone whose darkest moments threatened to define her narrative—while seeking the freedom to find out who she truly is. Thrust onto the public stage at fifteen years old after the Taliban’s brutal attack on her life, Malala Yousafzai quickly became an international icon known for bravery and resilience. But away from the cameras and crowds, she spent years struggling to find her place in an unfamiliar world. Finding My Way is a story of friendship and first love, of anxiety and self-discovery, of trying to stay true to yourself when everyone wants to tell you who you are. In it, Malala traces her path from high school loner to reckless college student to a young woman at peace with her past. Through candid, often messy moments like nearly failing exams, getting ghosted, and meeting the love of her life, Malala reminds us that real role models aren’t perfect—they’re human. Finding My Way is a vulnerable, surprising memoir that buzzes with authenticity, sharp humor, and tenderness. It is an intimate look at the life of a young woman taking charge of her destiny and is a deeply personal testament to the strength it takes to be unapologetically yourself.

Our next Project Local exhibition features the art of Ottavia Huang. Ms. Huang’s art was recently featured in Lake George Journey: An Alphabet Adventure, on sale now at the library and other local businesses. A reception honoring her will be held on Thursday, October 23rd at 6:00 pm.
The artist reflects. “My work captures urban and natural landscapes, emphasizing peace and tranquility. Using watercolor and pen, I create spontaneous, light-filled sketches that serve as documentations of my travels and explorations of New York as my newfound home. I aim to convey the beauty of nature through on-location sketches, portraying both the physicality and the emotions of every scene. Beyond landscapes, I explore connections and emotions in daily life, depicting bonds between friends, loved ones, and furry companions. Each sketch aims to evoke the serenity and emotional depth experienced in each moment, represented by light, transparent colors and simple lines.
Ms. Huang’s art will be on display until the end of November. Stay tuned for a watercolor and ink workshop, too! This exhibition is held in partnership with the Lake George Arts Project.

Remember: "if you aim for nothing, you'll hit it every time." Find out how to reach your dreams. – Registration required: Caldwell-Lake George Library Join us for needle felting at the library on Tuesday, October 28th at 6:00 pm. Needle felting is a craft that uses specially designed notched needles to sculpt wool into shapes and designs. The notches on the needles tangle the wool fibers, causing them to interlock and form firm structures. This versatile craft allows you to create anything from simple 2D flat pieces to intricate 3D sculptures. Michele will guide us through the process of creating cute little ghosts! All supplies and instruction are provided. If you have crafted with us before, feel free to bring supplies. This event is free, but space is limited; call the library at (518) 668-2528 to register. |

We invite you to sit down with us for an intriguing conversation with Gregory about her newest novel Boleyn Traitor (forthcoming October 14, 2025). Jane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor Court, where secrets are currency, every choice is dangerous, and even the faintest whisper can seal the fate of queens. For Jane, survival demands playing every role required of her: a loving wife who conceals her doubts, a devoted sister to Anne Boleyn at the height of her power, and an obedient spy who carefully wields her words. But in a court ruled by ambition and a tyrant’s sword, Jane must rely on her sharp wit and skillful maneuvering to outthink those around her, knowing that one wrong move could cost her everything. With a rich tapestry of new historical insights and lyrical language honed over decades of writing, Gregory's return to the Tudors is a new definition of this most fascinating era. As the world becomes more extreme and unpredictable, Jane’s story of survival and ingenuity offers a compelling parallel, serving as both a powerful historical narrative and an echo of the challenges we face. This is a riveting tale of loyalty and betrayal, ambition and love—one that should not be missed by readers this fall. Register today for this exciting glimpse into the perilous 16th century royal court! Registration is required and a high speed internet connection is recommended.
