Avalon Community Library celebrates it’s 40th Anniversary in 2023. To commemorate this event fifteen oral history interviews were conducted with former volunteers and some of our library patrons.

Memories of the establishment of the library were captured as well as an insight into how the Library is enjoyed today.
