The Mary L. Blood Memorial Library has been a part of the West Windsor community for 125 years! Over the years, we have worked to modernize and keep up with the needs of our community. Our goal is to provide the most valuable service to our community possible while maintaining fiscal responsibility. That is to say, we want to do the best we can for the community with the resources we have. To this end, we are reaching out to learn how the library can best serve you. Please let us know what we are doing well, where we can improve, and what you would like to see for the future of your library. We are hoping to get responses both from adults and youth.

****UPDATE: THIS WILL BE RESCHEDULED FOR ANOTHER DATE. TBD.

Have you read any good books that have inspired you about the outdoors, nature, or the climate? Join folks from the Mary Blood Library and the Mt. Ascutney Interpreter for a hike to a woodsy spot to share a book you've read or hear about what others have read! This could be anything from a non-fiction book, a memoir, a fantasy novel, a gardening book, or a thriller that takes place in the woods.

A few suggestions: A Walk in the Woods; How to Love a Forest; The Last Child in the Woods; The Hike; The Snow Child; Cabin: Off the Grid Adventures; Prodigal Summer; Serviceberry; Migrations; The Trail; Wild Ideas; Grandma Gatewood’s Walk; The Overstory; The God of the Woods; The Hidden Life of Trees. And there are so many others! We’ll have the “books in the woods” outing on July 18th, so you have time for a good read. Enjoy!

Location: Mt. Ascutney State Park. (Drive the toll road to the top.) You do not need to pay the toll; just let them know you are with the library program.

If it rains we will reschedule this program for a later date.
