The library was honored to have astronaut and Friendswood resident Jerry Ross speak to a full house yesterday evening at the Friendswood Public Library. Jerry provided fascinating information regarding his wonderful new book Spacewalker: My Journey in Space and Faith as NASA’s Recording Setting Frequent Flyer. Using PowerPoint and narrating his own video footage Jerry gave audience members a vivid look into the world of astronauts and their work with the Space Shuttle and Space Station. Jerry also took time to answer numerous audience questions.

The former Carnegie Public Library at William Avenue and Dagmar Street on the northerly fringe of Winnipeg's central business district. Until the 1970s this was the main branch of the Winnipeg library system. Since that time it has been home to the City of Winnipeg Archives. The building contains references to the charitable educational purposes of the Carnegie benefaction including the motto "Free To All" as seen here. The shields on either side of that motto read "History and Literature" and "Arts and Science".
