In the fall of 1982 Dr. William Sherwood Kilgore bequeathed funds to build a new public library to be named in honor of his parents. His gift built the 14,000-square-foot Kilgore Memorial Library at 520 Nebraska Avenue. It opened in the spring of 1986.

Take a moment at the following locations to write down some information and enjoy the tour:

Entrance--West wall
How many $101-$500 donors where there? ## = AB
Entrance--East wall
How many people were on the city council? # = C
Main lobby--Skylight area
How many vents plus round light fixtures? # = D
The "Axe V" sculpture--North Wall
What year was it donated to the library? #### = EFGH
The Mary White sculpture--near the center
What year was Mary born? #### = JKLM
The Meeting rooms--West of the restrooms
How many meeting rooms are there? # = N
The Smaller Rooms--North West corner
How many are there? # = O

Problem #1: X = AB + ( C + D ) ² + ( C + D ) ² + O + N
Problem #2: Y = (EFGH - JKLM) * 2

Finally!
To find the cache search the Non-Fiction for X
To open the container use Y


PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL!!
And please don't steal the ink pad or stamp, takes me a long time to carve them with my fat fingers.
