πŸ“š Let’s Strengthen Our Community!

Consider donating to the Friends of the Gold Coast Library.

Libraries are more than books β€” they are gathering places, safe zones for learning, and resources for those who may not otherwise have access. With your support, the Friends help fund programs for children and adults, provide museum passes, and enhance the library as a welcoming hub for everyone.

Your donation ensures the Gold Coast Library continues to grow, thrive, and serve all parts of our community. Together, we can make a lasting impact.

πŸ“š Happy Flag Day from the Friends of the Gold Coast Library!

Each year on June 14, we honor the adoption of the American flag in 1777 β€” a symbol of our nation’s history, unity, freedom, and the many generations who have helped shape our country.

Flag Day is a time to reflect on the values represented by the stars and stripes: liberty, resilience, and hope. It also reminds us of the importance of community, civic pride, and coming together despite our differences.

Today, we proudly celebrate the flag and all it represents for Americans past and present. β€οΈπŸ€πŸ’™

πŸ“š Join the Friends of the Gold Coast Library for a fascinating Author Visit featuring local author and Gold Coast patron Mary NoΓ©!

πŸ—“ Sunday, June 28th
⏰ 2:00 PM
πŸ“ Gold Coast Library
146 Glen Head Road, Glen Head

Mary NoΓ© β€” lawyer, writer, lecturer, and Professor at St. John’s University’s Collins College of Professional Studies β€” will discuss her compelling new book: The Man Who Shot J.P. Morgan: A Life of Arsenic, Anarchy, and Intrigue.

This captivating true crime story follows Harvard instructor Erich Muenter, who disappeared after his first wife died under suspicious circumstances. Years later, living under a new identity and teaching at Cornell University, Muenter became consumed by radical politics and anti-war beliefs β€” ultimately targeting financier J.P. Morgan Jr. on Long Island’s Gold Coast.

From Harvard University to the Gold Coast mansions of Long Island, this gripping presentation explores false identities, political extremism, scandal, and intrigue in pre–World War I America.

πŸ“– Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event, with proceeds benefiting the Friends of the Gold Coast Library.
