June MacDonald of Friends of the Vinalhaven Library hands over the library "key" to Leonard "Buddy" Skoog, president of the library trustees. On Aug. 15, 100 years to the day after the Vinalhaven Public Library -- thanks to a $5,200 grant from Andrew Carnegie -- first opened its doors, the library's trustees, friends and community members dedicated a new addition made possible by over $1.1 million in private contributions.
