Parks are the heart and soul of every community. We at the library are happy to have additions to Special Collections that documents our parks. We partnered with the Parks Department to pay homage to our open, green spaces here in Brookline. This exhibit shows some of the artifacts the town has found when excavating parks, some photographs the library has, and advertising the current project to collect your park stories! To find out more about collecting park stories, visit the Parks Department Page.  Visit the reference desk to learn more about local history and Special Collections.
