MLK Day

On Monday, Jan. 19, we celebrate the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Library will be open from 8am - 5pm and the Reference Office will be open from 1 - 4pm.

Coming a day before the inauguration of the country's first African-American President, this year's Day of Service is especially important. How can you make a contribution?

The King Day of Service website offers many service ideas and links to organizational partners in this effort. USAService.org lets users search for events by zip code and type of event. Organizations and individuals can get more information about hosting and registering their events.


Looking for inspiration directly from Dr. King? Visit the Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute at Stanford University, which manages the King Papers Project. It provides access to many of Dr. King's quotations, sermons, and speeches.
