The Library History Buff

Promoting the appreciation, enjoyment, and preservation of library history

Library Buttons

If you're a librarian, you probably have at least a small button collection. This is perhaps the most common library collectible.  I have hundreds that I have picked up at library conferences and elsewhere over the years.

Buttons from an exhibit at the Milwaukee Public Library in April, 2009.

Joel Robinson, Executive Director of the Marmot Library Network in Grand Junction, Colorado, provided me with this image of his collection of library buttons. Thanks Joel.
