Hi everyone, here is our weekly Suggested Listening and Viewing post; featuring ten songs and two streaming video recommendations, one from a mainstream service and the other from Kanopy, the library’s free to access streaming service (all you need is a library card!).
On this our second weekend of the dregs-of-winter-wishing-spring-would-hurry-up-and-get-here month of March, we’re chilling out with a collection of classic pop songs of the nineteen sixties.
Enjoy your weekend!
