I can’t come to this event, but I’m wondering what LBPH stands for. And where is “the Library”? If I wanted to come, I would have no idea where you’re talking about. Maybe I’m not the only one in the dark here!

The Friends of LBPH will hold their Annual Meeting on Saturday, October 30 at 10:00 am at the Library.  We are also conducting a bake sale to raise money for the Braille book shelving project.
 
The featured speaker at the meeting will be Rafael Alvarez.  Alvarez was a City Desk reporter for the Baltimore Sun for twenty years, specializing in local folklore.  In addition to writing scripts for the HBO drama The Wire, Alvarez has published The People's History of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, and recently sold a pilot script for a new waterfront drama to the Independent Film Channel.  Rafael Alvarez is the author of six books, including the short story collection, Orlo and Leini.  LBPH has recorded The Fountain of Highlandtown, narrated by Susan Rittenhouse, MDC00466.
 
Show your support for LBPH and buy a sweet so that Braille books at LBPH can be properly preserved.
