Interview with BML architect Alan Wiedie and Town Historian John Toomey: Nov. 16, 2020

Town Historian John Toomey sat down with architect and Bolton resident Alan Wiedie to discuss his design of our current library and the history of library services in Bolton. They take you on a ride down memory lane, touching upon some of the people and homes along the way. 

Follow the journey of Bolton's library from our humble beginnings in a corner in the general store to the days of a library car that drove door-to-door and finally to the conversion of an old football field into what is now the Bentley Memorial Library. Watch the interview.
