SUMMARY:Vermont Women and the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:A Vermont Humanities Council series hosted by the Hartland Public Library (Windsor County.) \nJoin us as we welcome speaker Howard Coffin – A seventh-generation Vermonter\, and the author of four books on the Civil War with a focus on Vermont and the Champlain Corridor. See full biography. \nEvent Description: \n“Vermont women enlisted for the duration.” So said a Vermont historian assessing the war years of 1861-1865. \nVermont’s remarkable Civil War battlefield record is well documented: breaking the flank of Pickett’s Charge\, the great stand at Wilderness\, the climatic assault at Petersburg. \nBut little is known of how Vermont women sustained the home front. With nearly 35\,000 of the state’s able-bodied men at war\, the monumental tasks of keeping more than 30\,000 farms in operation became very much a female enterprise. \nAnd women took the place of men in factories and worked after hours making items needed by the soldiers. A Vermont woman edited anti-slavery newspapers\, and others spoke against slavery. Also\, Vermont women served as nurses in the state’s military hospitals and in the war zone\, and taught newly-freed slaves in the South. \nThis story is told in their words\, from letters and diaries that describe life during the Civil War in the Green Mountain State. And at least one Vermont woman appears to have secretly enlisted and fought in a Vermont regiment. \nSupported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Vermont Humanities Council (VHC). Any views\, findings\, conclusions\, or recommendations expressed in this program do not necessarily represent those of the NEH or VHC.

SUMMARY:VLA 1st Thursdays for December
DESCRIPTION:Sustainable Libraries and Resilient Communities \nSustainable librarianship might seem like a “nice in theory” kind of idea but much of what we do\, especially in our small Vermont libraries\, falls under this umbrella. From “reusing” books through library circulation to installing solar panels and so much in between\, libraries are the proving ground. Join Mindy Blank and Madeleine Charney\, two sustainability pioneers\, for their take on sustainability and how it applies to what we do and we can do. In addition\, learn about the new Sustainable Libraries: Blue Marble Vermont initiative to get underway in 2022\, fully funded from the Vermont Community Foundation.  \nMindy Blank is a Climate Futurist and the Executive Director of Community Resilience Organizations. Her overarching focus is on building social infrastructure for the Northeastern US to act as a climate refuge by creating alternatives to dominant\, oppressive systems that address late-stage capitalism and land sovereignty for people who have been marginalized by cultures of colonization. Mindy works closely with the Every Town project on creating safe\, welcoming\, actively anti-racist communities that support Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color (BIPOC) land stewards and is part of a team working on complementary legislation – the VT BIPOC Land Access and Opportunity Act. She is a grassroots climate justice organizer with a legal background\, supporting communities and networks in designing local resilience-building projects\, of which libraries are a key network as organizing hubs for integrating community resilience through a justice and educational lens. \nMadeleine Charney is a master gardener\, labyrinth facilitator\, mindfulness teacher\, climate change activist and the mother of a teenager. She holds an MLS from the University of Rhode Island and an MA in Sustainable Landscape Planning and Ecological Design from the Conway School of Landscape Design. Madeleine works at the W.E.B. Du Bois Library at the University of Massachusetts where she supports the departments of landscape architecture\, regional planning and agriculture. She sits on various campus committees involved in the energy transition (and inner transition) for a habitable planet. She is a co-founder of ALA’s Sustainability Round Table: Libraries Fostering Resilient Communities. \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
