There was a grant program to send glasses for the upcoming solar eclipse to libraries around the country.
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.
Do not look directly at the sun or eclipse without glasses that meet safety standards. Doing so can permanently damage your eyesight.
The entire 3rd floor of the Faulk Central Library will be unavailable starting Monday, August 14. Here’s why.
No estará disponible el 3er piso entero de la Biblioteca Cental Faulk a partir del 14 de agosto. Porqué
