June Meeting of the Breast Cancer Survivor’s Group

New Books for June!

We have a number of patrons (as well as a certain staff person) who enjoy British mysteries.  If you’re a fan of “Vera’ or “Shetland,” run, don’t walk, to the Roxbury Library.

Welcome, Kindergarteners!

We were so happy to welcome the Roxbury Central School Class of 2035 to the Library today!  We read a story, toured the library, and answered all kinds of questions.  We hope to see them back again soon!

Our First Plant Sale!

Our first Plant Sale on May 27 was a huge success! Special thanks to Elizabeth Frugina who coordinated all of her green-thumbed friends, to the Roxbury United Methodist Church for the tables, to John Zummo and Ed Scudder who did the heavy lifting, to Renate Rennie who helped our customers all day, and especially to our faithful patrons, Board members, and friends who walk-the-walk by supporting us in all of our endeavors.
Next up: our Silent Auction on Saturday, July 1! Call us for more information 607-326-7901. This is our biggest fund raiser of the year, and we need your help to keep our doors open to all.

Library Closed, Monday, May 29, 2023

The Roxbury Library will be closed in observance of Memorial Day on Monday, May 29, 2023.  Our hope is that you have a safe weekend in remembrance of those who served our country.

Mark Your Calendar For Our Plant Sale Fundraiser!

Our Plant Sale fundraiser will be Saturday, May 27, 2023 (Memorial Day weekend - just in time for planting in our area)!  We’ll offer plants ready to go into the ground, seeds, bulbs, gardening books, etc.  Our expert gardener, Elizabeth, will be on hand to give you advice and help you make your selections.

While you’re here, check out this year’s quilt to be raffled off!  It’s a beauty.  Tickets are $1.00 each or 6 for $5.00:  all proceeds to benefit the Roxbury Library.  Drawing will be held December 2, 2023.  You can also shop in our newly spruced-up Thrift Shoppe (we have the very best volunteers xoxoxoxo).

We’re on Facebook and Instagram!

Check out our Facebook pages and Instagram feed!  We’ve updated all the pages and hope that you’ll enjoy browsing through the information.  Please let us know of anything you’d like included - we’re striving to be a place of community resources.  And, of course, a place to find great books to read.
