LAKEPORT, Calif. — The Lake County Library regularly hosts community events for all ages, including STEM, seasonal and much more.

This Saturday, Oct. 14, the public is invited to Lakeport, Redbud and Middletown branches to watch the solar eclipse at 9 a.m.

Free eclipse glasses will be available while supplies last.

In an eclipse of the Sun, the Moon moves in front of the Sun and covers some or all of it.

All parts of the continental US will see a partial eclipse. Join the community events at Lakeport, Redbud, and Middletown branches and receive free certified solar-viewing glasses.

It is never safe to look at the sun, even with regular sunglasses; but you can use certified solar-viewing glasses to safely protect your eyes.

A calendar of all upcoming events is available on the library website at https://library.lakecountyca.gov.
