On Monday, January 18th, 2020, the library will be closed in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Many people describe this federal holiday as a "day on" not a "day off", as they choose to celebrate and honor the work of Dr King through service.

You can also explore local celebrations; here are some starting points to see what the Seattle and San Diego area communities are doing:
