At 7 p.m. Monday, May 15, 2021, Margaret
Arnold, historian with the Community Library, will present the May
program to the Big Walnut Area Historical Society on “How to use
Delaware County Memory Website” to obtain local history materials.
There is no charge for the meeting which will be in the Myers Inn
Museum Meeting Room.
Started in 2005, Delaware County Memory is an ongoing collaborative
project between libraries, governmental offices, local historical
societies, and other local archives throughout Delaware County. The
project is administered by Community Library and sponsored in part
by the Community Library Foundation and the Delaware County
Foundation. The goals of the project are to make county-wide local
history materials accessible that support the information needs of
historians and genealogists everywhere.
Delaware County Commissioners issued a resolution of support for the
project in November 2010.
Margaret has a Master's Degree in Library and Information Science
from Drexel University in Philadelphia. She has been with Community
Library since August 2002.
