Beachwood Branch

Beachwood Meeting Room (Auditorium) (84)

Join us to learn about love on the brain and the predictors of attraction and liking.

Contrary to what you might believe from poetry and music, love doesn’t come from the heart! Indeed, the brain is the one that’s responsible for those feelings of fondness. As Valentine’s Day approaches, join us to learn about love on the brain and the predictors of attraction and liking.

Dr. Evan Shelton is the Director of the Center 4 Brain Health at Menorah Park. He is a Doctor of Philosophy in Adult Development and Aging with a primary focus of study in non-pharmacological approaches to improving quality of life for persons with dementia and their caregivers.

About the branch

The Beachwood Branch first opened to the public on October 31, 1982. At the time, it was the first branch in the CCPL system to have an automated circulation system. Located just a few hundred yards from the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage, the branch offers a drive-up window where customers can pick up requested materials, dedicated spaces for kids and teens, and a beautiful outdoor reading garden.
