    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the development of a branch library to serve the community of Newburg in Louisville, Kentucky. The efforts of Louisville mayor Jerry Abramson in acquiring funding for the branch, the donations which enabled the purchase of library materials and computers, and the usage of the library are examined. Challenges associated with the library's construction, its early success, and its impact on the community are explored. Library development in Louisville is also discussed.
