Sandburg Films To Be Shown At Galesburg Library
Three big names, one night at the Galesburg Public Library.

The library will be showing two videos about famous poet Carl Sandburg, who was born in Galesburg.

Patty Moshier uncovered one of the films at the library, but says both are worth a watch.

"These are excellent films and one of the Norm Winick at the birthplace worked very hard to get. And the other one, that I found, was just on the shelves at the archives. I didn't even know it existed. And discussed it with the director Pam Vankirk and we decided to send it away and had it digitized because it's very difficult to show films anymore because they are so brittle so we decided to do that and we wanted to open it to the public and let them come see it."
