LIBRARY CLOSED FOR HOLIDAY

Photobucket






The staff of The Green free Library would like to wish all patrons and visitors a HAPPY and SAFE FOURTH OF JULY.

Independence days, more commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday that commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in which the United States declares independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. It is a holiday unique to the USA, though other countries may have similar holidays celebrated on their own specific dates.

The legal separation of the colonies from Great Britain actually occurred on July 2, 1776. It was on this date during the American Revolution, that the Second Continental Congress voted to approve a resolution of independence. Though Thomas Jefferson is credited with authoring the Declaration of In dependence, the actually resolution was written by Richard Henry Lee, an American Statesman from Virginia. This proposal was known as the Lee Resolution, or the resolution of independence; it was made on June 7, 1776, and was approved on July 2, 1776.

The text of the final document formally announcing the action was approved on July 4, 1776. I t was prepared by Thomas Jefferson, as its principal author, along with John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Robert R. Livingston and Roger Sherman comprising a Committee of Five. This document was the United States Declaration of Independence.

The library is closed on Saturday, July 3 and Monday July 5, 2010, so that the Director and staff members may celebrate and enjoy this time with their family and friends.

Normal operating hours are:

Monday-Thursday 10:00 AM-8:00 PM


Friday & Saturday 10:00 AM-5:00 PM
