Did you know that Overland Park has a Library District? It’s a neighborhood that extends south and east from Johnson County’s Central Resource Library at 9875 W. 87th St. Now, thanks to a project completed in time for spring walking weather, pedestrians can be reminded of both the area’s identity and the power of words to inspire and console. Ten plaques, each with a quote from a children’s book author, have been installed alongside the sidewalks on 91st and Farley streets. Starting near the library at 87th and Farley, the mile-plus route takes pedestrians south on Farley to 91st and then east almost to Antioch Road — past Strang Park and Pawnee Elementary School.
