Centennial Celebration of the Margaret Clapp Library

October 21, 2009 from 4:00-5:30 p.m.
Crozier Reference Room, Margaret Clapp Library

Join us in the Margaret Clapp Library as we gather to celebrate the 100th birthday of the Clapp Library and the 25th Anniversary of the Friends of the Library with toasts, refreshments and birthday cake.

A photo exhibition in honor of the event will provide a retrospective look at the last century of the building, its people, and its functions. Festivities will include remarks by President Bottomly and others, and the announcement of the prize-winners of the Friends of the Library-sponsored Book Collecting Contest. In culmination, we will unveil the specially commissioned commemorative poster, created by renowned graphic designer and illustrator Lancy Hidy. Complimentary copies of the poster will be given to attendees and a deluxe injet printed edition will be available for purchase, signed by the artist. Poster sale proceeds will support the Library in its second century.
