A brief look back at the last few years of Library History Roadshows
Since 2011, the Library History Roadshow has collected over 90 video memories from library patrons, as well as heaps memorabilia from over 28 branch libraries, current and historical, for the Tampa-Hillsborough County Public Systems (THPL) Library History Digital Collections. For us, public librarians, it is humbling to listen and learn about how the public library's services positively affects the quality of life for Hillsborough County residents.
Throughout the last century, this library system has grown along with the City of Tampa and Hillsborough's County's population while providing quality programming and implementing emerging technologies. The history of every community in Hillsborough County is reflected in the history of their public library branch. See more about the library system's chronology or browse the library's history in the THPL Digital Collections.
Check for updates on the library's centennial celebration programs and events.
