There’s still a chance the 2007 World Series Championship Trophy won by our beloved Boston Red Sox will make a stop at Seekonk Library sometime this year! But we need your help. If you want to see the Trophy here up close and personal, please address your letters to Boston Red Sox, 4 Yawkey Way, Boston, MA 02115-3496 or contact the Red Sox through their website www.redsox.com. Scroll down to the Help/Contact Us button (at the bottom of the page) and e-mail them that Seekonk Library is the best place to view the Trophy! It was a little more than three years ago when the 2004 WS Championship Trophy visited us in April, 2005. Maybe Phil Derick, the Trophy Ambassador with the Red Sox, will work his magic and schedule a visit to Seekonk Library!

Greetings to all!!!
During the installation of our new roof, a skylight and its surrounding structure fell into the building. Some shelving was damaged and we lost some of our music collection. Fortunately, no one was injured. The Building Inspector closed the building because it was unsafe to be in until the second skylight was removed […]

Just a line to let you know that our “rewards” for children who enrolled in our Cabin Fever Club winter reading program in February are now available with the Youth Services Librarians. Drop by the Children’s Room and ask Sharon or Mary Ellen to let you pick out your special reward for participating in the […]
I can’t believe it but the truck pulled up at 7:45am. It is now 2:11pm and most of the Children’s room shelving has been installed and we are ready to start filling the shelves again. The day has been busy and we have been short one person. Marge Bradley was stuck at O’Hare because of […]
I have not seen the Children’s room empty in 30 years. We saved quite a bit of money moving everything out by ourselves. On Friday we get to move everything back. In the end it will be well worth all of the work because we will finally have room to grow the Children’s collection. […]
