Children's Services


Charles N. Dietz, president of the Library Board, is shown entertaining children in the children’s room at the Old Main Library circa 1900. Service to children is a major part of the library’s mission. The Omaha Public Library was one of the first in the nation to have a separate Children’s Room.
