Name The Landmarks...Win A Prize....

According to Chase’s Calendar of Events 2021 May is Mystery Month! 

To commemorate this special month we are having a Medina County Landmark Contest. Below there are several photographs of landmarks located throughout Medina County. Some are of the complete landmark and some are just a peek. The photographs have been contributed by the Medina County’s local Historical and Genealogical Societies* and by me, Lisa Rienerth, and my co-worker, Kathy Petras. 

All you need to do is identify the landmark and the township where it is located. After viewing all the images you will click on a link to a form which you need to fill out and submit by May 31st! The winner will be the recipient of some awesome library swag so get those entry forms in!

You must be a resident of the Continental United States to enter. 

Have Fun and Look for the winner and the answers posted in our June 9th BLOG!

Medina County History Fair 2021

On Saturday, January 30th, we will be hosting our 6th Medina County History Fair and our 1st VIRTUAL Medina County History Fair! 

In the past, around 30 different historical societies from Medina County have participated in the Local History Fair at the Medina County District Library. 

Their informative displays and members gave everyone a glimpse of what their society does and what they have to offer. 

                                                           

This year the following Societies have produced either a PowerPoint presentation or a video which can be accessed through the library's YouTube playlist beginning January 30th.
