Just 73 seconds into its flight, the shuttle exploded, killing all seven crew members aboard.
Christa Corrigan McAuliffe grew up in Framingham. She was a Girl Scout, graduated from the former Marian High School and then Framingham State College.
The library branch and a charter school is named after her in the City of Framingham.
