It's National Library Week, and we're celebrating by tracking the story of libraries throughout history!

From the first myth collections in Ancient Mesopotamia, to the burning of the Library of Alexandria, to the public library system established by Benjamin Franklin, we are traveling back in time to discover the roots of our beloved library system! Learn how libraries have become a frontline source of information and entertainment, and look forward to what the future could hold for our libraries!
