Town ’N Country Regional Public Library, 7606 Paula Drive, Ste. 120 in Tampa

FREE

Former patrons of the old Westgate Branch Library and current patrons of the Town ’N Country Regional Public Library are invited to bring their library photographs, memories and memorabilia to share! The Tampa-Hillsborough County Public Libraries will begin celebrating their 100th anniversaries in 2014. To prepare, the libraries have partnered with the Tampa Bay History Center to present the Library History Roadshow. The Library History Roadshow will make stops at library branches throughout Hillsborough County over the next several years, gathering and documenting the communities' library memories, photographs and memorabilia.

Staff and volunteers will work onsite at the Library History Roadshow to digitally scan photos and other printed items that residents bring, and immediately return the originals to their owners. Attendees will delight in recording video and audio stories that share their historical knowledge of and experiences at the libraries.

For adults.
