Halloweeners pushed through the brand new, heavy wooden doors of Martin Library in full costume in 1935. Trick or treating was a thing that night. The tricky launch of a new library at the height of the Great Depression had been successful. And what a treat it was, this new winsome space filled with books as a diversion in this times of need. The Depression was a crusher, to be sure. But for Martin Library and a host or organizations that would become York County icons, the 1930s served as a moment to conceive, birth and grow. York Little Theater, York Symphony and York Chorus trace their beginnings to these times of scarcity. Except at Martin, with its abundant Halloween treats and shelves of books.
