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!
