SUMMARY:Built By Barbed Wire: DeKalb Public Library/Haish Memorial Library
DESCRIPTION:As the 150th anniversary of Joseph F. Glidden’s “The Winner” barbed wire patent approaches\, there are opportunities to learn more about the prosperity and innovation that barbed wire brought to DeKalb\, earning it the nickname “Barb City.” \n\n\n\nAt 3 p.m. on Saturday\, July 6\, the Glidden Homestead and DeKalb Public Library will host a “Built by Barbed Wire” program at the library\, 309 Oak Street. This program\, which is free and open to the public\, will share the history of the building that was donated by barbed wire baron Jacob Haish. \n\n\n\nJessi Haish LaRue\, Glidden Homestead executive director\, will provide remarks on the barbed wire story in DeKalb and Jacob Haish’s gift to the community. Then\, Emily Faulkner\, DeKalb Public Library executive director\, will provide a tour and “behind the scenes” view of both the original portion and the “new” portion of the library. Highlights include various historic plaques\, nods to the original architecture\, and new additions\, including the automated book sorter.
