We’re having a year-long celebration and you’re invited!
Columbus Metropolitan Library was founded on March 4, 1873 as a single reading room inside the original Columbus City Hall. Over the decades we’ve grown to 23 locations serving Franklin County, so we’re celebrating this milestone birthday with programs and events all year long.
We’re proud that for a century and a half, Columbus Metropolitan Library has provided spaces that are open to all. Come celebrate with us.
We’re celebrating the library’s past, present and future.
Buy your copy at any Columbus Metropolitan Library location for $35. Proceeds support the library’s programs and services.
