An Investment in Knowledge

~On Friday morning, I attended the grand opening of the new Orange County Main Library in Hillsborough:

^ It's a beautiful building adjacent to the main Orange County offices in downtown Hillsborough.

^ There was quite crowd in attendance for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Most of the Orange County commissioners were there, along with the State Librarian of North Carolina and State Senator Ellie Kinnaird.

^ I'm not sure who this guy was, but he wrote a poem about the library and read some inspirational quotes. My favorite was from Benjamin Franklin: "An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest."
