(KAIR)--A special dedication is planned this week as a group of middle school students unveil a littl free library.
The ceremony, complete with ribbon cutting, is planned for Thursday afternoon, at 1:30 outside the Atchison Middle School, on the 5th Street side. It's there that the little free library will be installed for community use.
According to educator Jerlyn Gormly, students recenly read the book "Little Free Libraries," by Laura Johnson, and that inspired the idea. According to Gormly, the middle school students' idea was brought to the Atchison High School Woodworking Class, which constructed the Little Free Library that will be dedicated Thursday.
The local, Little Free Library will be known as the "Imagination Station," and will be dedicated Thursday in memory of late educators Becky Reynolds and Teresa Ogle.
The dedication ceremony is open to the public.
