The Reference Dept. at the Northfield Library has come up with a good list of local resources for people facing hard times due to the recession. The list is for resources in Northfield and Faribault and includes places to go if you are eating on a reduced or fixed income. Local food shelves are listed as well as places to go for a hot meal. Information on housing and health care is also in the list. We have added as much information as we can including hours and phone numbers. We will post this on our website as well as in the library. We will also distribute to many of the organizations listed in the guide. The Library has been a busy place in this recession. People use our resources every day because of unemployment or a reduced income. We hope this information will be useful. If you know someone who could use this information please share.

Vintage Bands are Coming to the library!
The Northfield Library will host 2 of the Vintage Band Concerts this week.
On Thursday come hear the WindWorks Quintet at 2 P.M. This group will focus on woodwind quintet music as well as instrumental chamber music. The group hails from Northfield and the Twin Cities. On Saturday the Kentucky Baroque Trumpets will perform at 1:30 P.M. This group was founded in 2005 and in 2007 won the National Trumpet Competition in the Historic Ensemble Division. Along with the Baroque-era instruments, the ensemble also plays modern instruments, including all pitch trumpets and the corno da caccia.
Both concerts will be held upstairs at the library. For more information call the library at 507-645-6606 or visit the Vintage Band Festival website at http://www.vintagebandfestival.org
