Valley of the Tetons Library

Info about our library..

     The Valley of the Teton's Library was officially opened Wednesday April 20, 1966.
The Library was a project of the Chambermaids, a women's auxillary of the Victor Chamber of Commerce.  This was a great event that had recquired many hours of dedication and volunteer work.  

"The first library was a little building in the back of the Egbert Drug store.  The demensions were 9' x 16'!  It had no windows ... only a door. The Egberts donated the use of this building until the board was in a position to build.  The Walter McBrides donated a little butane stove.  The men of the area came in and built shelves.  The women cleaned the building, the area around the building and planted flowers to "spruce it up". "  Books came from the community and libraries in the surrounding area.  Within a week of opening the little building was bursting at the seams, having 7,000 books on it's shelves.
