Molino Library Celebrates First Year Of Service (With Photo Gallery)
April 6, 2014
The first anniversary of the Molino Branch Library was celebrated Saturday.
“It’s been a great first year, and the community has really welcomed the library,” said Darlene Howell, West Florida Library administrator.
The event included speeches, cake and ice cream, displays from the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, Molino Station of Escambia Fire Rescue, the Florida Forest Service, the Molino Historical Society, local authors, children’s activities, a book fair and more.
Howell announced that the local Honeysuckle Garden Club is partnering with the Molino Branch Library for a children’s discovery garden, which will be under construction soon.
The Molino Mid County Historical Society, Barrineau Park Historical Society and the Friends of the Library received special recognition for their efforts at the Molino Branch Library.
The Molino Branch Library is located at 6450 Highway 95A (just south of Molino Road) in the Molino Community Complex, which opened back in October 2012.

What a pleasant suprise to see Uncle Bob and Aunt Cathy in those pictures!. They are both looking great! Uncle Bob is the last of 3 children born to Gerald Otto and Ometa McKenzie Commings. Many more years , Bob!
As a member of the dogwood dulcimer group I want to thank you for having us. You guys did a wonderful job setting up for us to play. What a great time everyone seemed to be having with all the stuff you had going on. Looking forward to doing it again next year.
And may you have many more anniversaries. I absolutely love not having to drive to Pensacola to go to the library!
