Union Road Library Scrapbook. |
The Union Road Library "scrapbook includes photographs, meeting agendas, fundraiser publicity, informational pamphlets, and official letters documenting the approval and construction of the Union Road library branch. The photographs include the construction, first patrons, and staff members as they worked to get the branch operational. The scrapbook was digitized in 2020 by Union Road library staff in preparation for their 20th year of service celebration. Unfortunately, the celebration was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, but many of the materials had already been made."
