OLBPD is interested in patron feedback on whether we should expand our selection of remote programming beyond our monthly adult book chats, and add more programming options in 2021. Following this link will take patrons to a brief online survey consisting of four questions. Thank you for taking the time to share feedback as we look to gauge interest in developing and expanding more programs to readers throughout Ohio.

The Quotable BARD

Difficulty: Medium

Do you know the title of this book published in 1955, and the third and final volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings?

“Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?”

Hint: In 2003, this book was made into an epic fantasy adventure directed by Peter Jackson!
