Adventures in Libraryland: Learn about outstanding Missouri women at the Marshall Public Library

As we usher out the month of March, the library will be hosting a display on Outstanding Women of Missouri. This traveling exhibit, provided by the Missouri Women's Council, features Missouri women recognized in their disciplines throughout our state's history.

The exhibit will be up for four weeks. I encourage everyone to stop by and learn more about these courageous women.

"Can You Karaoke?" is a teen event (6th grade and above) scheduled for March 28 from 6:30 -- 8:30 p.m. at the library. Teens will have the chance to show off their singing and flair. Admission is one can of pet food for the local animal shelter.
