The Essex Library transformed into an 18-hole indoor miniature golf course on Jan. 14 and 15. Sponsored by the Friends of the Essex Library as a fundraiser to subsidize programs and materials, library-goers were invited to pick up a club and putt their way through the stacks. Here, Jim Childress lines up a putt through a Spiderman-themed aisle as Stephen Brinkmann, left, looks on.
