Library Closed on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

January 20 @ 9:00 am - 7:00 pm

Library Closed on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

The Library will be closed on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Monday, January 20.

Writing in The Washington Post in 1983, Coretta Scott King provided a vision of how the holiday honoring her husband should be observed:

“The holiday must be substantive as well as symbolic. It must be more than a day of celebration . . . Let this holiday be a day of reflection, a day of teaching nonviolent philosophy and strategy, a day of getting involved in nonviolent action for social and economic progress.”


While the Library is closed for the holiday, our digital collections are available 24/7. Download e-books, stream audiobooks, and e-magazine through the Ohio Digital Library where over 150 titles are available about Martin Luther King, Jr. alone!

Library cardholders always have access to online digital collection of ebooks, streaming audiobooks, e-magazines, and more!
