Buy a Brick!

 You can take home a little piece of the Ridgefield Library once construction starts and a large part of the building is demolished. For just $10 you can purchase an authentic brick from the current Library as a keepsake. They make a great bookend, paperweight or doorstop. Reserve your bricks now at the Circulation Desk or purchase online. |
