Re: the pig party event
It has come to our attention that there were many details not made aware to us when the presenter was booked. In the meantime, the promotion post (on the library's FB account) has been deleted while we gather more information and determine next steps. If anyone has comments or concerns, please contact me directly at jsullivan at branford-ct dot gov
Thank you for your patience.
Jennifer Sullivan, Library Director
