50 years ago today the first #woodstock festival began winding down. Were you there? Were your parents or grandparents? More than 500,000 music lovers traveled to a small town in upstate New York to hear some of the greatest musicians of their generation. Curious to see what #Avl kids were up to during the #summeroflove ? Come browse the NC Room's collection of photos and high school annuals for a little insight. Check on our story today for a peek into their world. ✌️🌻☀️🌈 #tuneinturnondropout #avlhistory #avlart #asheville #828isgreat #hippies #flowerpower #LibrariesofInstagram #ArchivesofInstagram #goodreads #amreading #withalittlehelpfrommyfriends @buncombecounty @pack.memorial.library

The North Carolina Room welcomed a group of 30 amazing students this morning for a library tour and scavenger hunt! They left feeling empowered, with lots of new knowledge of the library system, and brand new book bags to take with them as they start back to school on Monday. We're looking forward to seeing these awesome kids in the library, studying with their friends, putting their new knowledge and skills to work in the archives, and checking out books with their library cards. #AVLToday #avl #828isgreat @buncomberecreation @buncombecounty @buncombeschools @avlcityschools @unitedwayabc

It's #nationalbookloversday ! Celebrate by tagging us and @pack.memorial.library in a photo featuring a book by your favorite #northcarolina author! This little novel, "In Buncombe County" by Maria Louisa Pool is one of our favorite books in the North Carolina collection. It is one of many novels of it's genre that told tales of wealthy young women traveling through the Blue Ridge during the late 19th century. It shares the perspective of early tourists, and helped to shape the narrative of #appalachia to outsiders. #ArchivesofInstagram #rarebooks #LibrariesofInstagram #shelfie #avl #AVLToday #asheville #avlhistory @buncombecounty

One of the goals of the North Carolina Room is to *actively* collect the history of #Asheville and #WNC. One of the ways we do that is by following hashtags on Instagram like #AVL and #828isgreat. Through photos, we can can watch our city and surrounding communities change over time. One of the best places to watch this change happen is off the back of the Civic Center parking garage. Here's a challenge to YOU to help us track your photos! Tag us in your amazing Asheville Skyline pics (or other cool photos around town) and if they happen to be from the perspective of the Civic Center or Rankin garage, use the hashtag, #RankinAngles This week, we'll share some #RankinAngles old and new, too! #showuswhatyougot #avlhistory #ArchivesofInstagram #LibrariesofInstagram @pack.memorial.library @buncombecounty

We're getting ready for the official #booklaunch of "Hidden History of Asheville" from @arcadia_publishing tomorrow night! Don't forget to join NC Room staff at 6pm in the Lord Auditorium (bonus points for the first person to spy Tony Lord in this pic! 🤩) at @pack.memorial.library to pick up your copy and get an autograph! #avlhistory #avl #asheville #AshevilleHistory #ArchivesofInstagram #LibrariesofInstagram #communityhistory #tuesdayhistory #portraitsofthepast @buncombecounty @buncomberecreation

This week in communities, Friends of the NC Room board member and Lower Hominy resident @terryburgin52 takes us on a road trip through "The Hominies." While you think about your trip to the Miami Restaurant, Hominy Creek Park, and Mt. Pisgah, think about this beautiful postcard from our collection... find the link to our blog in the our bio! #52weeks52communities #avlhistory #asheville #avl #ArchivesofInstagram #librariesofinstagram #communityhistory #appalachia @buncombecounty @pack.memorial.library @buncomberecreation
