I was asked about life in library public service. Here’s what I said: “For the 38 years I have worked in the library biz, I have learned something new, and met someone new every day. Hopefully I’ve helped someone each of those days too.” #NationalLibraryWeek

Neat reflection at the Chicago Botanic Garden

@TonyDungy Happy Anniversary!

Today my beautiful wife Lauren and I celebrate our anniversary. God started us in Pittsburgh, took us to Kansas City, Minneapolis, Tampa, Indy, and even to Eugene Oregon. Our journey started with two people and has grown to 14 but through it all Christ has been at the center. We thank Him for the blessing of marriage and a family and we thank Him for watching over us the entire time. 🙏🏽 Happy Anniversary Lauren❤️

With the State Library celebrating its bicentennial, it seems a good time to reshare this post. When the present library was dedicated in 1934, a speaker described libraries as the "bulwarks of civilization,” a description which still applies today. class900indy.com/post/indiana-s…

My #TopNine2024 per the ‘gram. The #eclipse was truly magnificent. The new @indylibrary Glendale Branch occupies the center square.

We must never forget.

@LiterateIndy At least the statue survived. It now sits atop Central Library’s Ninth Street entrance.

The old Central Library, at southwest corner of Ohio and Meridian. Demolished 1967 for Sheraton Hotel.

@edfujawa So sad.

Hate to see this. The church building dated back to the 1870s and 1880s.

@indystar So sad.

In 1876, IFD made history by hiring its first Black firefighters: Thomas Smith, Robert Braxton, James Graves, and Thomas Howard. These firefighters were crucial for the safety of Black neighborhoods, as many white firemen refused to work in those areas. indyencyclopedia.org/hose-company-9/
