Join us for a free tour of three Eastern Iowa Carnegie Libraries!

We will depart from the Vinton Public Library on Thursday, September 25th at 9:00 am and will visit Carnegie Libraries in Monticello, Dubuque and Manchester. Dr. Shana Stuart with the Carnegie Libraries in Iowa Project will provide fascinating details about the history of these libraries and the legacy of Andrew Carnegie.

We will return to the library by 6:00 pm. Bring your own lunch, or purchase a $15 add-on boxed lunch during the registration process.
