SUMMARY:Nature Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Date: Sunday\, October 5\, 2025 Time: 2:00pm – 3:00pm  Location:  Conference Room   \nNature lovers and science enthusiasts\, we invite you to be part of our Nature Book Club!  In October\, we hit the open road\, figuratively\, as we read Crossings by Ben Goldfarm.   Every two months\, we’ll explore nonfiction books about nature and science\, and compare notes in a friendly\, welcoming discussion. \nOctober's book is Crossings by Ben Goldfarb. \nAbout Crossings:  \nGrand Prize Winner of the 2024 Banff Mountain Book Competition\nWinner of the Rachel Carson Award for Excellence in Environmental Journalism\nFinalist for the NYPL Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism\nFinalist for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award\nFinalist for the Reading the West Book Award in Nonfiction\nFinalist for the Colorado Book Award \nNamed a Best Book of the Year by the New York Times\, The New Yorker\, Science News\, Smithsonian Magazine\, and Kirkus Reviews \n"A powerhouse of a book…comprehensive and engaging." —David Gessner\, Washington Post \nAn eye-opening account of the global ecological transformations wrought by roads\, from the award-winning author of Eager. \nSome 40 million miles of roadways encircle the earth\, yet we tend to regard them only as infrastructure for human convenience. While roads are so ubiquitous they’re practically invisible to us\, wild animals experience them as entirely alien forces of death and disruption. In Crossings\, environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb travels throughout the United States and around the world to investigate how roads have transformed our planet. A million animals are killed by cars each day in the U.S. alone\, but as the new science of road ecology shows\, the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads; road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat. \nYet road ecologists are also seeking to blunt the destruction through innovative solutions. Goldfarb meets with conservationists building bridges for California’s mountain lions and tunnels for English toads\, engineers deconstructing the labyrinth of logging roads that web national forests\, animal rehabbers caring for Tasmania’s car-orphaned wallabies\, and community organizers working to undo the havoc highways have wreaked upon American cities. \nToday\, as our planet’s road network continues to grow exponentially\, the science of road ecology has become increasingly vital. Written with passion and curiosity\, Crossings is a sweeping\, spirited\, and timely investigation into how humans have altered the natural world—and how we can create a better future for all living beings.

A million animals are killed by cars each day in the U.S. alone\, but as the new science of road ecology shows\, the harms of highways extend far beyond roadkill. Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads; road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat. \nYet road ecologists are also seeking to blunt the destruction through innovative solutions. Goldfarb meets with conservationists building bridges for California’s mountain lions and tunnels for English toads\, engineers deconstructing the labyrinth of logging roads that web national forests\, animal rehabbers caring for Tasmania’s car-orphaned wallabies\, and community organizers working to undo the havoc highways have wreaked upon American cities. \nToday\, as our planet’s road network continues to grow exponentially\, the science of road ecology has become increasingly vital. Written with passion and curiosity\, Crossings is a sweeping\, spirited\, and timely investigation into how humans have altered the natural world—and how we can create a better future for all living beings.

SUMMARY:Online Author Talk : National Museum of the American Latino
DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday\, October 2\, 2025 Time: 11:00am – 12:00pm  Location:  Online   \nRegister here and submit your questions for the author before the event begins. \nJoin us in conversation with Smithsonian professionals Adrián Aldaba and Emily Key as they discuss Nuestra América and highlight inspiring stories of Latinos throughout history\, as well as their incredible contributions to the cultural\, social\, and political character of the United States. \nThe stories in Nuestra América cover each figure's cultural background and childhood\, and their accomplishments or contributions to American history. A glossary of terms and discussion question-filled reading guide\, created by the National Museum of the American Latino\, encourages further research and exploration. The museum has featured twenty-three of these stories in its exhibition ¡Presente! A Latino History of the United States\, the first exhibition to feature U.S. Latino history at the national level. \nFeaturing beautifully illustrated portraits by Gloria Félix\, this is a book that children (and adults) will page through and learn from again and again. A must have for every school and home library to help students understand the American story! \nRegister today to learn more about the rich history of Nuestra América! \nAbout the Presenters: \n  \nAdrián Aldaba\, a Chicago native\, is the national programs manager for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Latino. In this capacity\, he serves audiences of all ages by bringing the Latino Museum’s programs and content to communities where they live and thrive outside of the Washington\, D.C. area. He does this through the museum’s national leadership\, family\, and public programs for adults and intergenerational audiences. He also supports national K-12 efforts facilitating teacher workshops connecting the museum’s literacy initiatives and resources to educators across the nation. Aldaba co-authored Strategies for Engaging and Representing Latinos in Museums\, a free resource released by the American Alliance of Museums Latino Network. Aldaba joined the Smithsonian more than a decade ago after working as a research assistant for the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University. He earned his A.B. cum laude in Romance Languages and Literatures from Harvard College. \n  \nEmily Key is the assistant director of Learning and Public Engagement at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Latino where she developed the museum’s learning continuum and education vision centered on creating opportunities for visitors to experience\, learn\, reflect\, and transform by sparking curiosity and encouraging life-long learning. Key oversees national bilingual programming\, community engagement\, K-12 aligned educator resources\, publications\, and the Young Ambassadors Program\, a nationally recognized youth leadership program.Key is also responsible for the creation of the General Motors Learning Lounge and its correlative educational programming for the museum’s Molina Family Latino Gallery that opened in June 2022. Prior to the museum\, she led education efforts for the Smithsonian Latino Center and worked in the education department of the National Air and Space Museum. Key holds a graduate certificate in arts and culture strategy from the University of Pennsylvania and a BA from the George Washington University. \n  \n**Note: While the book will be discussed\, please be aware the presenter may explore other topics in the related fields suiting their additional expertise. Presenters can be expected to be experts in the field; however\, for the Smithsonian and Library Speakers Consortium Collaboration they may not always be the author of the book being highlighted.** \nTo register\, or to watch at a later date visit the Author Talk webpage. \nThe Los Gatos Library recognizes the diversity of our community and is committed to accessibility for all patrons. We strive to make every visitor feel comfortable by ensuring equal access to programs\, services\, and activities. If you require a reasonable accommodation in order to participate in a library program\, please contact library@losgatosca.gov \n
