The Palestine Public Library held its grand opening at the Carnegie Building Wednesday with a ribbon cutting and comments from city and library leaders. Attendees praised the library’s move back into the historic structure, which sat vacant since the early 1980s when the library moved to the Alamo School building on Cedar Street.
After two more moves, the Palestine Public Library has finally returned to its permanent location at 502 N. Queen St., where it offers all the modern conveniences of a new building, including technology and accessibility in a safer structure.
