Dr. Peter D'Onofrio, president of the Society of Civil War Surgeons, presents Medical Advancements of the Civil War on Wednesday, February 10 at 7 p.m. at the Main Library. The Civil War resulted in the highest number of U.S. casualties per capita of any of our wars. Approximately 620,000 men perished, including 360,000 in the North and 260,000 in the South. These casualties exceeded those of all other U.S. wars and affected nearly every family on both sides. What’s not often appreciated are the rapid advancements made in American medicine that were stimulated by this conflict. This presentation explains those advances and their impact on the subsequent development of American medicine.
Please note that the 6:30 p.m. meeting of the Lane Road Library's Let's Speak English class has been cancelled for Monday, February 8. The 1 p.m. class will meet as usual.
2009 has been a wonderful year of notable occasions, national recognition and milestone achievements for the Upper Arlington Public Library. In April, we received national recognition as a 5-star library by the Library Journal publication. In June, we reached 1 million in circulation a month earlier than last year. We had great participation in our summer reading program and launched the long-awaited and hugely popular online archive of the Norwester Yearbook with a grand reception this fall. On the day before Thanksgiving, the library circulated its 2 millionth item. Also in November, for the second time this year, Library Journal ranked the UAPL a 5-star library and #1 in our budget category based on circulation, patron visits, program attendance and Internet use. December 11 marked our 42nd year as an independent library system.
Thank you, Upper Arlington residents and patrons, for continuing to support your library through it all. We look forward to being here and serving you and your families in the New Year.
