Thank you to all who joined us for the 140th anniversary celebration of Belleville's library on Sunday, December 2nd. Party-goers enjoyed music by blue grass band Squirrel Gravy, hearing library history from Rosemary Ziehli and Bob Hoffman, making holiday crafts, reading stories about the library, and yummy treats provided by the Friends of the Belleville Public Library. Shown is Jerry Remy talking with Darlene Duklas, whose great-great-grandparents Henry and Mary Story founded Belleville's first library in 1878.
