The library (and the college campus) will be closed on
MLK Day, Monday, January 19th.
Taking place each year on the third
Monday in January, MLK Day is the only federal holiday observed
as a national day of service – a "day on, not a day off."
The MLK Day
of Service empowers individuals, strengthens communities, bridges barriers, and
creates solutions to social problems.
The 2015 challenge is to make a
commitment to serve your community throughout the year. Make your pledge to make your community a better place.

entrance.
