STAFF REPORT

The Bell County Historical Society Museum recently received a financial gift from the city that will help create a new exhibit on how the Carnegie Library was developed. The exhibit will explore the vision some of Middlesboro’s leading citizens held in the early 1900s around a library’s role of enlightening and educating the city’s residents.
The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Admission is free. For more information, call 606-242-0005.
