Happy centennial, Monterey County public libraries

The Monterey Count Free Public Libraries will host their centennial celebration launch party Saturday, with lots of activities centered around a burro. Turns out Anne Haddon, first Monterey County librarian, delivered books by burro to Big Sur. Back then, it used to take her a looooong time to arrive.

Boy, have we traveled far!

Celebrations begin at 12:45 p.m. with music by Bayside Jazz, followed by speeches, cake cutting, and open house activities. There will even be Zumba at 3:30! Party will take place at the Marina branch library, 190 Seaside Circle.
