Take a visual tour of Americana with the John Margolies Roadside America Photograph Archive. Captured is life along the country's streets from 1969 to 2008, including drive-ins, motels, gas stations, miniature golf courses, and store signs. The collection was fully digitized by the Library of Congress.
 
 
The library has (temporarily) left the building! Our pop-up library will be around town this summer and fall at community events. Check out books, get a library card, learn about what's happening at the library, and more. Look for the Seymour Library cart and stop by!

We will email a survey in about a month to capture your thoughts on the summer program. Why a survey? Seymour Library wants to show our funding sources that we are using their money wisely and achieving our goals set for the summer program. We would also like your input to plan next year's events. Thanks!
