SUMMARY:Critical & Rare Earth Minerals: Their Importance to Society & a Low-Carbon Future
DESCRIPTION:What are critical and rare earth minerals? Where can they be found around the globe\, and what are the political implications of their prime locations\, such as Greenland and China? Why are these minerals so important for our lives today and for our low-carbon future? What is the nature of Maine’s deposits of these minerals\, and what are the controversies that surround their potential for mining? Geologist John Slack will discuss these contemporary\, vital issues and more. \nJohn Slack is a retired geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey\, where he worked for 40 years in Reston\, Virginia\, and two years in Menlo Park\, California. He holds a Ph.D. in Economic Geology from Stanford University (1976) and serves on the editorial boards of three scientific journals. He has over 400 publications on mineral deposits and mineral resources\, based on his field work in many parts of the US (New England\, Alaska\, Rocky Mountains)\, Canada\, Norway\, Australia\, and other countries. Over the past decade\, John’s research has focused on critical and rare earth minerals\, especially in Maine. He lives in Farmington and Rangeley.

SUMMARY:Postponed until further notice: Mourning Maine's Dead: Victorian Hair Jewelry & Crafts
DESCRIPTION:Postponed until further notice: In 19th-century Maine\, death was ever present. To grapple with loss\, Victorian Mainers could turn to art and craft to mourn and remember their loved ones. Their material-of-choice was human hair. Mary Baker made a good living crafting flowers\, wreaths\, and jewelry from human hair. Her Portland home-based business tapped into a national craze for Victorian hair jewelry which not only memorialized the dead\, but also connected the living. From snips of a loved one’s hair in a locket\, to braided hair friendship rings exchanged between schoolgirls\, to a large-scale wreath of flowers containing the hair of an entire family\, Mainers embraced hair art as a symbol of mourning the dead and celebrating the living. \nOn Wednesday\, July 22nd\, at 6:00 PM\, Dr. Elizabeth DeWolfe will be speaking at the Rangeley Public Library. Elizabeth DeWolfe is Professor of History at the University of New England where she teaches courses in women’s history\, archival research\, and American culture. Dr. DeWolfe is a historical detective: she hunts archives for the traces of ordinary women\, piecing together their all-but-forgotten lives from faint clues. \nDr. DeWolfe’s latest work\, Alias Agnes: The Notorious Tale of a Gilded Age Spy\, reveals the tale of a Maine stenographer turned undercover detective. Her previous work includes the award-winning book The Murder of Mary Bean which illustrates the great opportunities as well as the dangers for young women working in the textile mills of the 1830s and 1840s. DeWolfe has also written about the Shakers\, Victorian hair jewelry makers\, and a Maine woman’s battle with bullfrogs in the Great Depression. \nThis program is offered free of charge\, but we request that you sign up so that we may know how many people are coming. Please stop by the library\, call (207)864-5529\, or RSVP on our website www.rangeleylibrary.org .

SUMMARY:Goode Vibrations of the Dead River Valley
DESCRIPTION:Join author Amy Safford on Wednesday\, July 15th at the Rangeley Public Library as she shares from her book\, Good Vibrations of the Dead River Valley. In this second book of the Goode Vibrations series\, Penelope Goode tries to make sense of her ability to see into the past. She travels to the mountains of northwestern Maine to visit a relative threatened with losing his property. She finds herself immersed in a community of hunters\, loggers\, and fishermen. Her visions take her back in time to the days before Flagstaff and Dead River were flooded by the Power Company. Sinking even deeper into the past\, she dreams of Benedict Arnold’s epoch expedition through the untamed wilderness of the valley. Pennie discovers injustices of the past and the freedom America fought for 250 years ago.

SUMMARY:In the Shadow of Big Red Eye
DESCRIPTION:Mike Familant\, full-time Bigfoot researcher\, producer\, and lead investigator of the documentary series In the Shadow of Big Red Eye\, will be at the Rangeley Public Library on Wednesday July 8th at 6:00 PM to discuss his investigation of the Big Foot phenomenon. Mike has traveled across the United States for over 15 years\, from the swamps of Florida to the deep forests of Maine\, documenting evidence\, interviewing witnesses\, and exploring some of the most remote wilderness areas in North America. His journey began about 15 years ago when\, on his very first camping trip in the vast North Florida wilderness\, five fist-sized rocks crashed through the pine canopy at 4 AM\, landing just feet from where he sat. When a friend tossed a rock back\, a 15-pound boulder slammed into the ground beside them. In that instant\, they determined that they were not dealing with a person\, and he changed the entire direction of his life. Since then\, Mike’s mission has been twofold: first\, to investigate the Bigfoot phenomenon with honesty\, curiosity\, and real fieldwork\, and second\, to inspire families to get outside\, explore nature\, and rediscover the wonder of the world around them. This hour-long family-friendly program blends storytelling\, science\, field investigation\, and audience interaction. It includes a full multimedia PowerPoint presentation\, authentic evidence collected over 15+ years\, local legends from Maine\, thermal footage\, audio recordings\, track casts\, and field photos. Mike will share behind-the-scenes stories from expeditions across the country followed by a Q & A session and ending with a time for photos\, autographs\, and one-on-one conversations.
