Hundreds attend solar eclipse viewing at Carson City Library
The Carson City Library celebrated Monday morning's solar eclipse in all its spectacular glory. Hundreds turned out for the NASA-themed event complete with safety viewing glasses, information booths and more.
Carson City Library was selected through a competitive application process to be part of NASA@ My Library, an initiative to engage public audiences nationwide in informal and lifelong learning with the excitement of NASA exploration and discovery. In spring 2017, more than 500 libraries applied to participate. Carson City Library was one of only 75 public libraries nationwide to be part of the initiative.
