Back by popular demand! It’s a new year and it’s time to get organized! You may have heard some buzz around the words “bullet journal.”
Darien Library is offering an hour-long presentation on tips for creating your bullet journal, a way to keep yourself organized enough to help get those New Year’s resolutions moved from aspirations to reality.

Sounds fancy and complicated, right? What if we told you it’s just a paper journal that, once set up, can be maintained in just 15 minutes a day, simplifying your life immensely?
Come to Darien Library from 7 to 8 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 8 for a class that will give you all the basics you need to get started as well as walk you through the simple setup process. We’ll provide a notebook and a pen, so all you need is a desire to get started.
