Event Details

Skies too cloudy or otherwise overcast to view the April 8 eclipse? No worries, we'll be livestreaming the NASA video feed at all Rock Island Public Libraries. Watch as the path of totality makes its way across our timezone. 

Sorry, but our Watts-Midtown Branch ran out of glasses early this morning.
