Is there parking nearby? What are the buses for Park Street?

There is generally some street parking on side streets, and the garage at Central and Oak is free on Sundays. Park Street is served by the AC Transit 30, 31, and 51A lines. For meetings at the library, there is a small lot in back.

I don't subscribe to The New Yorker - how can I get the stories?

You can get them from your local library either in hard copy or online using the "Libby" app -- here is a link to the Libby help: https://help.libbyapp.com/en-us/6105.htm , or you can listen to them via podcast - "The New Yorker The Writer's Voice " .

Discuss New Yorker Short Stories Meeting 5

By Alameda Readers Group

Overview

Let's meet and discuss fiction from the New Yorker magazine!

Let's get together and discuss 3 stories from recent issues of the magazine. If you don't subscribe, you can get the magazine online from your library using the "Libby" app or else listen to the podcast "The New Yorker - The Writer's Voice".

Stories for this meeting are: "Unreasonable" by Rivka Galchen (9/29), "Amarillo Boulevard" by Bryan Washington (10/6), and "Coconut Flan" by Catherine Lacey (10/13 issue).

We love if you read all three, but no judgment if you can fit in only one - all are welcome.

Please register to join us at the venue - registration is free. We will be sitting in the cafe in the back, or in the outdoor garden in back of the cafe. There is a small menu of snacks and beverages for sale on Saturday and sales benefit the Friends of the Alameda Library. I will bring a tray of cookies.
