Government

Sarasota County Libraries and Historical Resources announces “Suncoast Empire: Bertha Honoré Palmer, Her Family, and the Rise of Sarasota" as their 2021 One Book selection. "The One Book, One Community program encourages discussion across the community, and the Bertha Palmer story is one that still fascinates and inspires us today " said Di Pilato. "Whether you are new to the county, or have lived here your whole life, you have likely been affected by some decision or influence that Bertha or her family had. In 2021 our department is sharing programming, displays and exhibits as part of the Centennial, and this One Book selection complements those efforts.”
