The Tender Bar is
the story of a young man who grows up in a riotously dysfunctional
family from Long Island. The book pays homage to the culture of the
local pub. That's where young J.R. seeks out the companionship of male
role models in place of his absent father, where he receives an
education that has served him well in his career and where, inevitably,
he looks for love, bemoans its absence and mourns its loss.
Copies availble at the library.
Come join the discussion! Free and open to the public

American Madness 1932, directed by Frank Capra
starring Walter Huston and Pat O’Brien
Bank President, Tom Dickson, has had the bank,
its employees and its clients in his best interest. They, in turn, are
fiercely loyal to Tom and the bank. But Tom is accused of being
reckless and overly liberal in approving loans. Tom believes he is
doing what is needed to get out of the depression. A bank employee,
Matt, is implicated in a robbery at the bank. Although Matt does not
know who committed the robbery, he is reluctant to defend himself if
only to protect Tom and others.

WHO WE ARE
The Friends of the Dover Free Library was formed
in 2006 to support the staff by assisting with ongoing tasks and
programs, fundraising, and co-creating additional events that provide
opportunities for lifelong learning. The Friends of the DFL
include full-time and seasonal East and West Dover residents who value
the many ways in which our library enriches our community and
contributes to our quality of life. There is no cost to
membership; the only requirement is a desire to support the library.
The Friends are led by four officers and three directors who are
elected annually. VIEW THE FRIENDS’ BY-LAWS (51K PDF).
