Darwin R. Barker Library has been serving the community for 145 years. Recently the library received a new book donation, “Vital Lives,” from Megan Smith of Chautauqua Institution. “Vital Lives” offers personal insights into the lives of 100 prominent women. Each entry is concise and accompanied by a photograph or drawing. It is an inspiring book that confirms the personal power and dedication of women from around the world.
