The Dubois Public Library received 1,000 pairs of the glasses which they are distributing to schools and those who attend the library's eclipse watch party on Monday. Dubois Elementary School is planning on streaming the NASA fed of the eclipse and students with parental permission will have the opportunity to view the eclipse outside through the special glasses.
