| Perkins Library's 50th Anniversary |
It was a cloudy day but a large number
of bright and sunny folks showed up to participate in the Library's Anniversary. Several
of the classic vehicles were fairly new when the library first opened April 19, 1958 with about 800 books. By the time the library
had been opened a year there were about 3000 books ready for the public to read.
| Folks like to kick tires, |
|
|
| And talk about the GOOD OL' DAYS! |
Moving forward 50 years, the library now
has over 19,000 items circulated yearly to more than 3200 patrons. More than
14,000 materials, which include: books, CDs, DVDs, and Audio books are available to the public. Over 500 folks come to the
library each month to use computers and explore the Internet.
