King Holiday -- A Day of Service



The Library and Chattanooga State Community College will be closed Monday, January 20th for the King Holiday. The holiday first observed in 1986 was changed in 1994 as a National Day of Service by the US Congress.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. recognized the power of service. He famously said, “Everyone can be great, because everybody can serve.”

Think about the King Holiday as a day of service to your local neighborhood or to your community. For more information about service ideas or service projects, visit the King Day of Service website at: MLKDay.gov
