Library to Host Family Science Program

The Tompkins County Public Library and Cornell's Center for Materials Research will host Families Learning Science Together: Marvelous Magnets, June 9 from 2 to 3 p.m. in the Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

Families are invited to explore magnetism through a variety of activities, including:  reviewing
the basic principles of magnetism, discovering how digital electronics store information in binary and communicating messages with magnets the way a computer hard drive does.

Families Learning Science Together is a free program designed to help children develop an early love of science through hands-on participation.   These programs are free and open to the public; however, space is limited. To register, contact Kaleigh at outreach@ccmr.cornell.edu or (607) 255-9547.
