A Campaign for the Library’s Future
The Easthampton Public Library is at a pivotal moment in its history.
The existing library has served the city superbly for over 100 years, but the building can no longer adequately meet the current needs of a city of 16,000 people. Easthampton deserves a fully-accessible library with space for events, meetings and classes.
Thanks to the generosity of bank ESB, there is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to expand library operations into a new space, the 52 Main Street Annex, and to envision moving library operations fully into a renovated new space. Each step of this move will take work, planning, and, yes, funds!
Your gifts are needed to help current operations AND to provide the financial support necessary to make the new location a reality.
The future home of the Easthampton Public Library.
