African American Display at Albion District Library



Frederick Douglass said, "Once you learn to read, you will be forever free." A poster expressing this concept is on display with photographs of many well-known African Americans in the Teen area of the Albion District Library.

Stop by the Library to see photographs of Coretta Scott King and Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Harriet Tubman, Marian Anderson, Queen Latifah, Michael Jordan, Nelson and Winnie Mandela, Malcolm X, Sojourner Truth, Billie Holiday, Serena and Venus Williams, Ray Charles, and Hank Aaron.


A book table near the Adult Room circulation desk offers African American books for quick and easy browsing and free bookmarks. Also available are free information packets on African American inventors.


The Albion District Library is at 501 S. Superior St. in downtown Albion. Call 517-629-3993 for more information. Visit http://www.albionlibrary.org/.
