Please note that the library will be closed all day on Monday, October 10 for a Staff Development Day.
The library will host its second author presentation on Thursday, October 27, at 7 PM. Jay Bonansinga, author of “Wreck of the Eastland,” will discuss his book and have copies available for autographing and purchase. The Eastland disaster has a great deal of local interest in Forest Park, because a number of the victims are buried in cemeteries here in town. Please join us for this interesting program.
