On December 4, 1913--the Albany Library was born. In a Fourth of July souvenir program from that year, Albany was called the place "where climate, convenience and courtesy cancels competition." Can't beat that!
Albany Library has lived up to all those C's, always striving to be convenient and courteous. And, in this town of 18,000, without using any shady methods to cancel competition, we are still the only public library in town.
Wednesday's Sing-along kicks off our centenary year. Come see if we look good for our age!
