Hundreds Attend Library Eclipse Program, Viewing Event On Monday

August 20, 2017

About 600 people attended solar eclipse educational programs Saturday at the main branch West Florida Library in preparation of a viewing event on Monday.

Special guest speaker, Dr. Wayne Wooten from Pensacola State College, presented the hows and whys of the upcoming solar eclipse during Saturday’s program.

Beginning Monday at noon, the main library at 239 Spring Street will host a viewing event.  The library’s solar eclipse telescope will be set up (weather permitting) to allow patrons to have a safe viewing of the total solar eclipse. West Florida Public Libraries will give away free solar viewing glasses provided by the National Science Foundation while supplies last.
