Liverpool, NY -- Liverpool Library is 117 years old and the community is invited to join in a birthday celebration on June 21 in the library lobby.

There will be a celebration at 1 p.m. with cake, hats and party trimmings, which are provided by the Friends of the Library. The open house party will continue until 6 p.m. or as long as supplies last. The Liverpool Public Library is located at 310 Tulip St. in Liverpool.

The original charter, issued by the University of the State of New York, is signed by Melvil Dewey, famous for devising the Dewey Decimal Classification system used in most public libraries today. This charter, as well as other historic photos and memorabilia will also be on display.

"One hundred seventeen years from the issuing of the first charter, the library is still a community hub, always changing and growing,” said Jean Armour Polly, executive director in a news release. “So many people, programs, materials and technologies have come and gone that it would be impossible to list them all. But we celebrate the wonderful library we are today and the future of the library we will become.”

The library has a long and varied history, serving the community as early as 1822. A complete history is published on our website www.LPL.org.
