Thank You!

Over a four month period the Library Foundation was able to garner support from a multitude of area partners and produce a world-class exhibit, The Map That Changed the World, that included a field trip, a weekly lecture series, and children’s programming, in addition to increasing traffic in the library and providing an additional source for securing donations to aid the Foundation and subsequently the Library.

We would like to thank everyone who donated their time and resources to help make this exhibition something truly positive for this community. We would also like to sincerely thank all of the volunteers and staff for their time and effort in help making this project a success.
