Bring your lunch and learn! These seasonally recurring events bring highly-qualified speakers to the library to share varied topics of cultural, historical, or scientific interest. These free programs are a partnership of the University of Nebraska at Kearney's History Department and the Kearney Public Library. #HistoryRemembered
A cooperative effort of the Kearney Public Library Foundation and the library itself, the goal of this event is to bring best-selling, nationally respected authors to Kearney. Now, several years into this endeavor, the event is held at the World Theatre in downtown Kearney.
Each summer we host an event that celebrates books in some way. From Edible Book Festivals to the Book Art Festival, there is a library-sponsored event to showcase the creativity of our community.
