What do you do with a broken toaster, a bike with a misaligned wheel, or a sweater with holes? Toss it? No way! Join us in the Appoquinimink Library’s Maker Lab! Our event will feature a team of volunteer repair experts who will assist with fixing a wide range of items free of charge. We’ll provide the necessary tools and some materials to help bring your broken items back to life. From toasters and lamps to bikes, clothes, toys, and tableware, we’ll try to fix it. Our skilled volunteers are equipped with the knowledge to tackle a variety of issues and give your items a second chance. Visitors are expected to carry out the repairs themselves with the guidance of the repair coaches. The Appoquinimink Library Repair Café aims to reduce waste by promoting the repair of everyday items. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the United States is seeing an alarming increase in waste, with many items being discarded even though they could be easily repaired. Repairing items not only saves money and resources but also contributes to lowering CO2 emissions. The Repair Café is dedicated to demonstrating that repair is a practical choice and ensuring that it's readily accessible to all. For a repair slot, sign up in person at the event.

Editors scrutinize freelance submissions to their publications—they want only the best. They are quick to reject submissions littered with grammatical errors, misspellings, and other inaccuracies. Writers must submit only their finest work to stand out from the competition, but how do you ensure your submissions pass muster? Join Weldon Burge, author and publisher, as he discusses the essentials for revising your writing—-whether fiction or nonfiction, whether articles, short stories, or books. Before submitting your work for publication, make sure it "shines" and will appeal to editors and readers. Better writing comes from cutting redundancies, fixing errors, and developing characters, dialogue, and viewpoints. Questions and comments are welcome throughout the session.
