The Mancos Public Library will soon celebrate a decade of operations in its current building.
After 10 years of operation at its riverside home at 211 W. First St., the library will be hosting an anniversary party on Sept. 15, complete with music, cake, and history.
The Mancos Public Library officially opened in 1946, though it has been shuffled throughout town over the past decades – the collection has been housed in sites including the old Town Hall, the high school basement, and 111 N. Main St.
In 2009, the library opened the doors at its current location.
The anniversary party will take place from 3 to 7 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 15, and will feature cake and ice cream, music from the Lindells and Koko, Mancos history and a kids table.
