Learn One New Thing at the Library

Stop into the library and learn something new about Black History Month.

Thanks to NMCC student Joane MainGrette for the wonderful displays she is creating highlighting important individuals who made a difference in our history.

If you missed the display on Rosa Parks, be sure to get in to see the display on WEB DuBois. Joane has a list of people she plans to highlight and the displays will change throughout the month.

Special thanks also to NMCC student Candice Rivera for researching information about Black History Month and contributing to the displays in the library. Candice located information on Jackie Ormes, the first African American female cartoonist. Based on the recommendation from Candice, the library purchased the recent book about Jackie Ormes.
