732-7341 to do so. If you find you're available that night, meet the tour group at the cemetery's 5th Avenue entrance.

Movie Flick: Sink your teeth into free popcorn and a movie based on a book. 5:30 pm, June 18, Main Library. We can't tell you the title here, but here's a tip: Great white shark, plus summer beach-goers equal a classic film with lots of action beneath the surface. (Novel by Peter Benchley.)

Learn how to use new technology and new library services next week, too:

Downloading Music with Freegal: 6:30 pm, June 19,

Main Library. Yes, now you can download free music with your Rock Island Library card and an Internet connection. You do have to be a Rock Island Library cardholder to use this digital service.

Using Your Tablet: 2:30 pm, June 20, Main Library (For users of Android devices only.) Do you have a new tablet PC or a new Kindle Fire HD tablet? Want to learn more about what you can do with it? Join us for a free how-to session.

Make sure you bring your device - this is a hands-on session, and the library will not supply devices for use.(Have an Apple tablet? Join us in July for a session just for you. Details at left.)
