As part of National History Day 2014, there will be a History Day Hullabaloo at the Northfield Public Library this Saturday.  A History Hullabaloo is a research open house for 6th grade students to conduct primary and secondary research with the guidance of library and St. Olaf and Carleton College staffs.  Seems like a perfect Northfield event: our excellent public schools and exceptional private colleges working together to explore our fascinating history in our beloved Carnegie Library.
