'Turnback Tuesday' features historic photo of Derby Public Library
The photo was taken by the famous Derby/Ansonia photographer, Clara Barton Tomlinson Drew. It shows the back entrance of the Library from Elizabeth Street.
A pioneer among female photographers, Drew had a studio in her home on New Street, Ansonia (which was Derby until 1889).
This picture was taken and gifted to the Derby Public Library in 1920.
Thanks as always to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.

Recuperation journey: Birthday reflections
On my birthday I have many good memories of childhood parties, dinners out, cake, lots of cake, and never having to go to school on my special day.
But the best memory of all is the perfect gift I received on my birthday in 1988: our daughter Allegra!
Happy, Happy Birthday to our beautiful and talented daughter. May your days be merry and bright and may 2019 be your best year yet.
Love,
Mumsie
Kids invited to read to Spirit at Derby Neck Library

| Spirit is a great listener. |
Spirit, a Newfoundland, is a great listener and will be here once again for children to read to. You can bring your own book or choose one of ours from the library. And if children simply want to stop in to just say hello and visit, that’s cool too.
No registration is needed, just drop in.
The Library is at 307 Hawthorne Ave.
This info is shared from the Library's Facebook page.
