About Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation (AIISF)<\/h3>\n

Located in San Francisco Bay, the Angel Island Immigration Station served as an immigration port between 1910 and 1940, with subsequent immigration processing taking place in San Francisco. During WWII, at various times, over 2,500 German, Italian, and Japanese internees were imprisoned at Sharp Park Internment Camp in Pacifica in San Francisco County, along with some Mexican and Canadian \u201cenemy aliens.\u201d The military facilities on Angel Island were expanded, with Fort McDowell used as a detention station for over 700 \u201cenemy aliens,\u201d many seized from Hawai\u2019i. These internees were later transferred to inland Department of Justice and Army camps.<\/p>\n

AIISF raises awareness of the experience of Immigration into America through the Pacific. In partnership with California State Parks, AIISF collects and preserves the rich stories and personal journeys of thousands of immigrants, and shares them with visitors and everyone living in America through education initiatives and public programs. Angel Island Immigration Station reminds us of the complicated history of immigration in America. It serves as a symbol of our willingness to learn from our past to ensure that our nation keeps its promise of liberty and freedom.

About the Boise Public Library, Library! at Hillcrest<\/h3>\n

From October 1st through October 6th<\/strong>, the Boise Public Library is hosting Enemy Alien Files at their Library! at Hillcrest location at 5246 W. Overland Road, Boise, ID 83705. Boise Public Library traces its roots to February 18, 1895, when the women of the Columbian Club opened a subscription library and free reading room in City Hall. For 10 years, the Club kept the reading room alive while helping to secure funds from Andrew Carnegie to construct a true public library. Andrew Carnegie awarded library grants to 1406 communities in the early 1900’s with the provision that the communities supply land and on-going maintenance. Columbian Club members persuaded Boise city fathers to provide the matching funds necessary for the administration and maintenance of a Carnegie library. Boise’s Carnegie Public Library opened its doors on June 22, 1905.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”853″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.boisepubliclibrary.org\/locations\/library!-at-hillcrest\/”][vc_btn title=”Learn More About Boise Public Library<\/strong>” style=”custom” custom_background=”#330033″ custom_text=”#ffffff” shape=”square” align=”left” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boisepubliclibrary.org%2Fabout%2F”][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMG5hbWUlM0Rzd3RqYyUzRSUzQyUyRmElM0U=[\/vc_raw_html][vc_btn title=”Learn More About Library! at Hillcrest<\/strong>” style=”custom” custom_background=”#330033″ custom_text=”#ffffff” shape=”square” align=”left” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boisepubliclibrary.org%2Flocations%2Flibrary!-at-hillcrest%2F”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#330033″][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1736822659898{margin-bottom: 32px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
