YOUNGSTOWN

Youngstown State University’s Maag Library, the second largest institutional repository in Ohio, will celebrate its 40th year at an event 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday in the library lobby on campus.

The celebration will include birthday cake, memorabilia chronicling the library’s history and a chance to win prizes sponsored by the Friends of the Library.

The library traces its beginning to the University Library in 1908 at the YMCA Law School in Youngstown, relocating to Jones Hall in 1931, Tod Hall in 1953, and finally to the new, six-floor 150,000-square-foot facility in 1976.
