On September 27, 1959, a who's-who of Minneapolis gathered to lay the cornerstone for the new Minneapolis Central Library at 300 Nicollet Mall. Beneath the cornerstone, a copper box held a time capsule of library memorabilia. When that new library was demolished in 2002 to make way for our current downtown library, the time capsule was opened and the contents are now a part of Special Collections.
What was included in the time capsule? Records say the time capsule held microfilm of the Minneapolis Star and Tribune, library annual reports, a photo of the first Minneapolis library, and an audio recording from the library's 50th anniversary. It also held an abundance of booklists on almost every topic. A few highlights include: "The Best is Yet to Come: Books with Heroes and Heroines past Middle Age", "Garden Plots: Books on the Mysteries of Gardening," and "Pets: A List of Books from the Minneapolis Public Library."
One thing it seems like the time capsule did not hold was a federal saving's bond. Members of the Library Board had considered including a "pay to bearer" bond inside the cornerstone, but that idea was abandoned.
