    AN UPDATE ON THE RESTORATION OF THE WEBSITE:  The Cemetery files have been restored to the Kansas Room page.  It is going to take some time to get everything back up and running, so please be patient while we work through the problems.

    Our website is back up…but is still not feeling well

    If our website looks a little strange, it’s because it got hacked earlier this week by an internet “vandal”. Whoever it was managed to get into the server that hosts many of the libraries in Kansas. Like other acts of vandalism, the one responsible was long gone before anyone noticed, leaving nothing but a mess behind.  Thanks to a lot of hard work by the server administrator, the site is back up – but things are still a bit messy.

    Happy New Year, and thanks so much for your support of the Library!
