12:39 pm - Clearwater’s North Greenwood Library Celebrates Five Years
Help Clearwater’s North Greenwood Library celebrate five years in the current library building Tuesday, Jan. 15 at 4 p.m. North Greenwood Library’s fifth birthday party is an opportunity to get the community together and celebrate. There will be cake, crafts, and a storyteller.
The first library in the North Greenwood area opened in April 1950 in a storefront on Pennsylvania Avenue and Cedar Street. The library housed only 5,000 books at that time. In September 1962 the library relocated to 1250 Palmetto St. and was named the Northeast Branch Library. In 1983 it became the North Greenwood Library, and in 1986, was renovated and expanded. The groundbreaking for the new North Greenwood Branch Library building was held at its current location in October 2001. The grand opening took place on Jan. 18, 2003.
