We’re pleased to announce that 15 REELS of MICROFILM have just been ADDED to our DIGITAL ARCHIVES website! 
The reels that have been added are:
Central City Republican-Nonpareil ~ Rolls #31-45 (4/14/1966-2/11/1988 
Part of the digitization costs for these reels was covered by a donation that was made to the library for this purpose. The donation was given in memory of Lois Schank (former editor of the Republican Nonpareil).

The newspapers in the database are fully searchable by keyword and date (making it easy to quickly explore historical content). Use the archives to gain a local perspective on historical news, to research your family history, or to simply read about a person or event of interest. Additional pages will be added as the project progresses.

Lee and Wright Represent CCPL at 2021 Nebraska Makerspace Conference
This week, Jamie Wright and Sara Nutt Lee attended the two-day 2021 Nebraska Makerspace Conference in Lincoln, NE. The conference was held at the beautiful Nebraska Innovation Campus Conference Center. People were in attendance from schools, libraries, colleges, and businesses from all over Nebraska. Sara and Jamie each had multiple (all different) sessions that they presented at. The topics the two talked about included: how to host and publicize makerspace events, creating a makerspace in small spaces, ask the experts session, making the transition from a temporary to a permanent makerspace, and marketing your makerspace, It was exciting for CCPL to be able to talk about our library’s makerspace and about our community! #EnterImagineCreate#makerspaceCentralCity Nebraska
