Digitization Project Underway

We are currently digitizing materials related to our history as an institution. We are hard at work scanning photos and news clippings into our new digital collection. Eventually, the collection will be expanded to include materials relating to the history of the whole Canton community. Stay tuned for updates on this exciting project!

Here's a sneak peek of what's to come:

Do you remember when the library looked like this?

Somewhere in a file should be a history of "public" libraries in Canton before this one was established. I wrote it up based on papers in the Canton Historical Society Museum about 10(?) years ago. In addition to the small libraries in the one-room schools, there was a lending library run by a woman who lived across Canton Center from where we now are.
