Veterans Day Display


Veterans Day is November 11. Veterans Day was first established in the United States as Armistice Day to celebrate the end of World War I. In 1954, the national holiday was changed to Veterans Day to recognize the bravery and sacrifices of America’s veterans.
The library display case for November is featuring books to remember veterans and the wars they fought. Featured book topics include battles from World War I and II, Vietnam, the Gulf War through Afghanistan, military leaders, and veterans personal war accounts.
Thank and honor our veterans this November for their service and their role in shaping our history.
