The Foundation 2020
Welcome to the Stoughton Public Library’s science fiction & fantasy book group. We’ve named this group "The Foundation" in honor of science fiction grand master Isaac Asimov and his famous Foundation Trilogy. Copies of the selected books are available on the second floor of the library. We meet at the library on the first Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm.
January 8 (note different date): Start the Year with a Classic
We’ll explore the classic science fiction of Jules Verne. Choose from Journey to the Center of the Earth, From the Earth to the Moon, or Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.
