History Hour Celebrates Cd’A Library’s 120th AnniversaryThursday, October 17 (5:30 pm) – Come celebrate the 145th anniversary of Coeur d’Alene’s beautiful library at a special History Hour, Thursday, Oct 17, at 5:30 p.m., in partnership with the Museum of North Idaho. David Townsend, the former communications coordinator for the library, will take us from the beginning, when the library was nothing more than a dream by a group of passionate women, the Coeur d’Alene Woman’s Club. Through their tireless efforts and with the support of our community, the Coeur d’Alene Public Library has grown into what is today, a beautiful gathering place dedicated to lifelong learning. Join us as we acknowledge the roles of the Coeur d’Alene Woman’s Club, the Friends of the Library, the Library Foundation, and the passionate library patrons and employees whose endless efforts make this award-winning library the “Coeur of the Community.” Everybody is invited to join us for the celebration and to share their own memories of the library in all its locations and varied services throughout the years. Refreshments will be provided by the Friends of the Library.
