Author James Conrad​​​​​​
Greene resident and author of
The Oathwarden
​
An epic fantasy of a powerless man on a quest to hold the powers that be accountable.​
​​​​​
​James has never lived an ordinary life—starting out as a bounty hunter before shifting into technology, where he built near-expert hardware and software skills. That mix of grit, strategy, and imagination now drives his fiction, blending fantasy, science fiction, and horror to explore dark, high-stakes worlds where humanity still fights to endure. When he’s not writing, he’s often tinkering with tech, sharpening his craft, or chasing new ideas for his next book.​​​
Thursday, May 28th: Kindergarten Library Visit
​JAMM Library welcomes kindergarteners for a special library field trip where students can sign up for their very first library card! We’ll share a story, take a quick tour, and help each child complete their library card registration. It’s a fun, welcoming introduction to the library—perfect for building confidence, curiosity, and a love of reading at an early age.
Saturday, May 30th: Plant, Seed, and Book Swap
Bring something to share and discover something new at our Plant, Book & Seed Swap at the library! Drop off extra seeds, seedlings, houseplant cuttings, or gently used books, then browse the swap tables and take home new-to-you treasures—no purchase necessary. All ages and experience levels are welcome, and you don’t need to bring an item to participate (while supplies last). Label your plants/seeds if you can, and come connect with neighbors, swap growing tips, and stock up for the season.

The Correspondent
by Virginia Evans
​
​Rich with insight born of a life deeply experienced, The Correspondent is a luminous novel about the comfort found in books and the bonds formed with people we may never meet. It explores the arrogance of youth, the perspective of age, and the missteps and quiet kindnesses that shape a lifetime.​
