Richford Library Readies an Offline Card for Episode Six, Release Date Unknown

RICHFORD, Vermont — An act of optimism more than planning: that is how Richford Library's Colette Aubin-Roy described the blank offline media card she slipped into the lending rack this week, labeled and waiting for an episode that has not yet been released.

Episode Six of Nous Sommes RONA / We Are RONA has no announced release date — the McGill Collective has made no public statement — but Aubin-Roy decided to be ready regardless. A patron had asked about it weeks earlier, and she knows her regulars. "When it comes, people here won't want to wait," she said Saturday, straightening the card's sleeve. "So the card waits instead of them."
