Due to facility maintenance, we're CLOSED Friday (5/3), and so is our drive-thru book drop. No items will be due that day, and due dates have been adjusted!
Our library history and genealogy programming promotes an awareness of and interest in local heritage. Cindy's presentations are different every month, covering a wide variety of topics, and we often welcome special guests! Intended for ages 18+.
Cholera raged through the U.S. several times during the 19th century, with high fatality rates. We welcome Kentucky Humanities speaker Terry Foody, author of The Pie Seller, the Drunk and the Lady, as she poignantly describes this civic devastation—and the crucial deeds of a freed Black woman, a homeless laborer, and the founder of the Orphan Asylum—during a summer with 500 deaths.
The library makes every effort to ensure our programs can be enjoyed by all. If you have any concerns about accessibility or need to request specific accommodations, please contact us ahead of the program or event date.
