The NCSML’s Project,
My Flood Story is conducting research and collecting input for an
upcoming exhibition about the history of Czechs in Cedar Rapids
culminating with the 2008 flood. Your memories are valuable to this
endeavor. If you are a resident, business owner, or visitor to the
NCSML, we want to hear from you.

for inclusion in an upcoming exhibition and will become part of the
NCSML’s library archival collection.
