Newhall Library Gives Free Solar Eclipse Viewing Glasses

People lined up around the block outside the Old Town Newhall Library to grab a free pair of solar eclipse viewing glasses.

The Library estimated there was over 500 people in line for the glasses.

Through a partnership with NASA, the city was given 1,000 pairs of the special viewing glasses, which were partially given away on Friday and more will be given on during Monday’s eclipse viewing party.

  22. I called the Canyon Country library looking for some and they told me they are only giving them out on Friday during an event for the Solar eclipse and then on Monday during the Solar eclipse. Since we will be out of the area that day I couldnt get any. So I found mine elsewhere luckily after searching everywhere.
