Unfortunately the Austin Public Library was not selected to receive any.
The following area libraries will have the glasses, available on a first-come, first-served basis, during their solar eclipse events on August 21.
Closer to home, the Howson Branch of the Austin Public Library will have a Solar Eclipse Afternoon on August 21 where you will learn how to make a pinhole projector to see the eclipse.
You can also make your own pinhole projector using this tutorial from Wired magazine.
