And.... we're done with August!  We spent the month recovering from summer reading and preparing for programming and ordering materials for the fall. But it wasn't a complete bore! We hosted a solar eclipse viewing event at Welch Field, which saw over 320 people attend. We also had our annual chicken barbecue dinner and benefit auction, which raised over $12,000! We want to thank everyone who participated, whether it was in attendance, donating items or through volunteering. It really makes a difference. The proceeds from fundraisers help us purchase more books, preserve more archives and host more programs. And while you're at it, join us this summer and check out a good book or movie for Labor Day weekend and see the new gallery show and some of the other programs we'll be hosting this September.
We'll be closed Monday, Sept. 4, in observance of Labor Day.
Check us out on TV!
The Patterson Library can be seen on the Travel Channel's show "The Dead Files" on Saturday, Sept. 16 at 10 p.m.

Tune in to the Travel Channel and let us know on Facebook when you see the library on your screen.

And... before you go to the gallery opening on the 1st, find our table at First Friday in downtown Westfield!
