          Click here to read a transcript of this episode.

          Happy New Year! It's the perfect time to commit to learning something new, and to inspire you we’re sharing an excerpt from a recent episode of Down Time with Cranston Public Library. Host Tayla sits down with author Wendy Z Lewis and Beth Leconte, director of the Osher Lifelong Learner Institute at URI to discuss their experiences with lifelong learning and how you can keep learning now matter how old you are. You’ll also hear our regular segment The Last Chapter, where we discuss a library or bookish related question. This week we answered the question: If you were on a date with someone and you asked their favorite book, what book could they say that would be a red flag? Enjoy!

          Listen to the full episode, including Wendy, Beth, and Tayla's book and movie suggestions, first published on November 29, 2022.
