[POSTPONED] BOZEMAN LIBRARY TOUR
Wednesday, February 9, 2022
10:00 am – 11:30 am
What is the history of the Bozeman Public Library? Where and how did the library begin? How is it that Bozeman had the first public LEED certified building in Montana?
Plan to attend a personal tour of the Bozeman Public Library given by Alice Meister, retired librarian who will provide us with the evolution of our beautiful facility and the headwinds she and her team battled to have the facility built.
Let’s meet at Lindley Perk (inside the library building) at 10:00 am. Alice will share some history while we are eating pastries and sipping coffee, then we will head into the library.
Cost: FREE (but registration required)
