It's Constitution Day! Sept 17, 1783 - Sept 17, 2020

Join us in recognizing the 237th anniversary of the United States Constitution!  

We are providing some information on resources and events that you can check out to help you develop a deeper understanding of the Constitution and various issues related to the Constitution.

Visit the library to pick up a free Pocket Constitution at the display case near the Library Instruction Center (to the left after you enter the library). This year, the display features information about the amendment process and ideas that have been discussed as potential amendments for the future.
