National Hispanic Heritage Month
Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402. The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September18, respectively. Also, Columbus Day or Día de la Raza, which is October 12, falls within this 30 day period. https://www.hispanicheritagemonth.gov/about/

LIBRARY EARNS STATE AWARD !!!
The Tupper Lightfoot Memorial Library in Brundidge, Alabama, has received the Alabama Public Library Standards of Achievement Award at the Bronze Level. The award is attained by exceptional public libraries in Alabama, in recognition of superior planning and levels of excellence.
The award signifies the hard work of community members for many years, since the founding of the library in 1959. It is especially in honor of the former director Jean Carroll, who retired as library director in 2015.
This honor is the result of dedication and support from the City of Brundidge, the Library Board (Sara Bowden, Chair; Ann Andrews;Willa White), and former board members, staff & patrons. The award was presented at the Alabama Library Association Convention in Gadsden, Alabama, on April 14, 2016, to Theresa Trawick, Library Director and Jennifer Amlong, Assistant Director.
The Alabama Public Library Standards consist of criteria that measure facilities, administration & governance, planning, budgeting, staffing, continuing education, promotion & partnering, collections, services and technology. The Tupper Library was one of four Alabama libraries that received the award this year.
