REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR CERTAIN PROGRAMS. Please visit cuyahogalibrary.org or call the host branch to confirm. a Message from Our Executive Director Greetings, Summer is always an exciting time at Cuyahoga County Public Library because we offer young people so many unforgettable learning experiences and activities. Our Build a Better World incentive-based summer reading program is just the beginning; one part of a continuum of educational programming that keeps kids productively engaged, safe and entertained during the summer months. Summer at the library is all about discovery and the joy of learning. This summer – in addition to our usual abundance of quality youth programming and activities – we are offering more than 75 free summer camps designed to help students build STEM, literacy, communication and other valuable skills that translate to success in the classroom and beyond. We have camps on everything from constructing and programming robots, designing web-based video games, creating optical illusions and magic to fitness, teen entrepreneurship, conducting science experiments and exploring creativity through collaborative art. Young people will be actively engaged in hands-on learning and having fun. We are also expanding our summer lunch program from 10 to 12 branch locations. Many children in our communities depend on the stability and nutrition offered by school lunch programs. During the summer months, their access to healthy food may be very limited. We are partnering with the Greater Cleveland Food Bank to help fill the void by offering free, nutritious summer lunches to children ages 18 and under. Last summer, our 10 summer lunch locations received nearly 15,000 visits from hungry children. By expanding the program to 12 branches, we will serve the needs of even more. I invite you to check out the Featured Youth Programs section of this magazine for a complete list of our summer lunch locations and summer camps. We have so much quality youth programming to offer, but the summer of 2017 may ultimately go down as the summer of the author at Cuyahoga County Public Library. We have an unbelievable slate of more than 20 nationally recognized and best-selling authors lined up. We are partnering with Cleveland State University’s inaugural AHA! Festival to bring Jonathan Safran Foer to town for two events on June 8. On June 12, our Parma-Snow Branch will host a visit from Dennis Lehane, author of the best-sellers Mystic River, Shutter Island and Live by Night – all of which have been adapted into major films. Then on July 16, our South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch will host Fiona Barton, author of The Widow, one of the most talked about books of 2016. These are just a few of the amazing authors we have in store for you this summer. Check out our Meet the Authors section for a complete list of events. Our author events take readers “beyond the book” to learn how their favorite writers find inspiration, conduct research and develop characters, settings and plot. I, for one, can’t wait. It is going to be a summer to remember.

  • Humphrey Women

    Humphrey Women

    WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH THE Humphrey Women A promotional photo of Louise holding a shovel full of dirt on the future site of the Humphrey Company’s indoor ice skating rink in University Circle There are a number of reasons Euclid Beach Park and the Humphrey Family that operated it were so successful. One of the most overlooked reasons for their success is the many contributions made by the women of the family. From the beginning when the Humphrey's migrated from New England to Ohio, the Humphrey women were far more than homemakers responsible for rearing their children; they were decision makers who actively participated in the family’s business endeavors. Born on June 9, 1898, Louise was Dudley Sherman Humphrey II’s youngest child. She was only one year old when the family opened their first popcorn stand at Euclid Beach in 1899 under the park’s original owners. Louise went on to be educated at Hathaway-Brown School here in Cleveland and then Smith College. She excelled in music and before returning home to the family business, she wrote music professionally in New York City. Louise married John E. Lambie and like many of the Humphrey women before and after her, she took on an active role in the family business. She served as the vice president of the Humphrey Company for sixteen years and was responsible for the development of many of the architectural plans that changed the look of the amusement park. Most notably she oversaw the Art Deco makeover in the 1930's that changed the appearance of the entrances of the Thriller, Racing Coaster, and Flying Turns, the interior of the Dance Pavilion, and the Grand Carousel.

Formed in 2008, Urban Tango Trio is three virtuoso musicians: Octavio Brunetti, piano; Pedro Giraud, bass; and Machiko Ozawa, violin. Together they captivate audiences with the passion, beauty and excitement of Argentine music, taking them on a breathtaking musical journey that ranges from traditional favorites to contemporary 21st century interpretations.

Mr Brunetti has performed with world-renowned cellist, Yo-Yo Ma, jazz ambassador Paquito D’Rivera, Bandoneonist Daniel Binelli, and he has participated in numerous music festivals throughout the world, and performed in venues such as Symphony Space, The Blue Note, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. His recordings include Grammy award- winning CD “Te Amo Tango” with Raul Jaurena, and the original soundtrack music for the Francis Ford Coppola movies' “Tetro” and “Twixt” composed by Osvaldo Golijov.
  • The Collinwood School Fire of 1908

    The Collinwood School Fire of 1908

    H. F. Wendell Company, Leipsic, Ohio Mourning Card, 1902 ca. 1920 Gilt printing on white card stock; 4 ¼ x 6 ½ inches The mourning, or memorial, card reprinted on the cover was used by the funeral industry from 1902 to around 1920. Mourning cards became popular during the Victorian era and were often kept as reminders of lost friends or family members. Cards for children were typically printed on white cardboard, whereas cards for older people were printed on black cardboard. In reprinting this original card, the Library made no changes except for the wording in the center box, which typically would have contained the name of the deceased along with his or her birth and death dates. Reproduced courtesy of the Museum of Funeral Customs, Springfield, Illinois, www.funeralmuseum.org The Last Lesson Cleveland Plain Dealer, 6 March 1908 In Loving Remembrance: The Collinwood School Fire of 1908 An exhibit prepared by the History & Geography Department, Cleveland Public Library The Collinwood School Fire remains the worst school building fire in U.S. history. This is perhaps due to the heightened consciousness regarding fire safety following the disaster, but more concretely to the stricter building codes, better construction materials and lifesaving devices which came into use after the fire. A century-old myth holds that the students at Collinwood died because they were trapped behind doors that opened inward. This was quickly proven to be false, but the myth gained traction and is repeated to this day. It was the narrowness of the exit stairs and inner vestibule doorway, combined with the panic of the children as they rushed to escape, that led to their entrapment.

    Heritage of Books on Cleveland

    A L....--_----' Heritage of Books on Cleveland Cleveland Heritage Program A HERITAGE OF BOOKS: A Selected Bibliography of Books and Related Materials on Cleveland to be found at the Cleveland Public Library by Matthew F. Browarek CLEVELAND PUBLIC LIBRARY 1984 Cover photograph: Hiram House Station C 1920 Archives. Cleveland Public Library PREFACE The Cleveland Heritage Program was born out of the conviction that the city of Cleve­ land possesses unique qualities worth capturing in pictures and words. In designing the program, Professor Thomas Campbell of Cleveland State University and I were prompted less by a desire to evoke nostalgia than to retrieve fugitive material for the benefit of scholars whose work will help us to understand how and why our city is what it is. If the uses of history are to serve the present generation, then the Cleveland Heritage Program has done its work well. Funded primarily by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the program was carried on over a two-year period from 1981 to 1983. Important supple­ mentary grants were made by the Cleveland Foundation, the George Gund Foundation and Nathan L. Dauby Fund. Also, the Cleveland Heritage Program greatly benefited from the cooperation of the following institutions: the Cleveland Public Schools, the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland, the Greater Cleveland Growth Association, the Western Reserve Historical Society, Cuyahoga Community College, WVIZ-TV and the College of Urban Affairs of Cleveland State University. Under Professor Campbell and his many able assistants, diligent research recovered valuable artifacts, photographs and oral histories relating to several of Cleveland's neigh­ borhoods.
