Wish List for the New Ridgefield Library Launched

As construction continues apace, we are turning our attention to procuring the multitude of items we will need to make the New Library function as a vibrant, efficient and comfortable building once we move in during the spring. Furniture, fixtures and equipment to support library services and operations have been ordered, and now we are seeking individuals, families and businesses to step up and help pay for these purchases.  

 

Our new Library Wish List has just been launched. Choose from dozens of items at giving levels from $50 to $15,000. In addition to furnishings for the New Library, you may also choose to support some of our ongoing programs and collections like Books & Breakfast or downloadable e-book subscriptions.  You can browse the entire list on our website.

Register Now for Winter Children's Programs
December is the time to register for children's programs including storytimes and after school programs that begin the week of Jan. 6.  Register on the library's website.  Look for the first day of the desired program and complete the online registration form.
