After LJ posted a mention that various libraries were holding public screenings of President Barack Obama's Inaugural Address, we began to hear that many more libraries had scheduled such events. 
And we just got the first documentary evidence, a photo from the Williamsburg Regional Library, VA, where more than 130 people viewed the inauguration, including two Dayton, OH, women (pictured) who came to Washington, DC, for a day of service but stayed  in the only city where they could find a hotel.
