Memorial Day is a U.S. Federal holiday honoring and mourning those U.S. military personnel who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. From 1868 to 1970, it was observed on May 30. Since 1971, it has been observed on the last Monday in May. While the library won’t be open on that Monday, you can learn more about the U.S. military, the battles fought and won, and the freedom that has come at a price at your local Northwestern Regional Library. We, after all, offer so much more than books! , , , ,
