Are you maybe a little too busy to get in some proper reading time that allows you to participate in our "Americans and the Holocaust" book discussions? Then we have the perfect novella for you.

"Address Unknown" is a powerful little book, topping out at only 96 pages, but it packs a major punch in its messaging. You can get a copy on our book discussion display near the front desk. It is also available as an ebook and audiobook on Libby and as an audiobook on hoopla.

Local historian Bonnie Eyestone stopped in today and she's so excited about bringing Concentration Camp Survivors to American War Brides to you! Bonnie has been researching this subject since we approached her nearly a year ago and we know you'll learn something new about WWII.

Heads up! This program will be at the Student Life Center at Trinity Evangelical, which is located at Trinity's west entrance. We suggest arriving via the drive on East Wyandot Avenue.

We had a wonderful opening reception for the "Americans and the Holocaust" exhibit earlier this week. Roy Buchler, Director of Jewish Community Relations Council at the Jewish Federation & Foundation of Greater Toledo, spoke about the experiences of his grandparents, who survived the Holocaust.

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported us in this project.
