"Library history is community history."
In this conversation with Deb Smith, we learn about her work as executive director of the Jones Memorial Library in Lynchburg, Virginia, take a deep dive into the library's founding, early history, and the characters that shaped what it became, and explore the important discoveries still being made in the Jones archives to this day. Find out more about the Jones Memorial Library here.
Note: Being the excellent librarian and researcher that she is, Deb reached out shortly after the interview to let me know that the architects that designed the original Jones Memorial Library on Rivermont Avenue were Frye & Chesterman.
