It’s easy!

We hope families make library visits a part of their summer routine ~ enjoy looking at books and reading together.

Summer Reading Challenge for Adults 2025

Pick up your copy @ the library and begin your reading adventure.

Visit our new StoryWalk® written by students during Georgetown Central School’s after-school writing club. Each student chose an animal that can be found in Georgetown. Over six 1hour sessions, which ended up being 8, the girls researched and found information that they felt would be interesting to readers. They then put their information onto pages and drew illustrations to make their writing come alive. You can learn about local a bird, mammal, and fish as you walk the easy adaptive trail at Schoener Robinhood Cove Preserve. We hope you enjoy reading it as much as the girls did writing it! Click HERE to leave a comment about your StoryWalk® adventure.

Plans are in the works for our 2025 Book Sale! Mark your calendars. From 9:00 – 3:00, the G’Town school gym will be filled with books looking for a new home. If you have gently used books you think others will enjoy and wish to donate them, you can drop them off at GHS on Wednesdays & Saturdays or at the Library during our open hours.
If you’d like to help with the sale, contact Clara Forkey @ 207 522-9139 or email the library at lauraerichardslibrary@gmail.com

We will continue to have a small bookcase with a variety of used, withdrawn, and duplicate books available in the entryway during the season – pay what you wish.
