October Happenings from The Fiske Free Library

Socktober

This October, Fiske Free Library is joining the Socktober movement to help keep our neighbors warm!

We're collecting new, warm socks for local people in need.  Socks are one of the most requested - and most needed - items at shelters and community organizations. 

Please donate new socks for children, teens, and adults.  Drop off your sock donations at the library throughout October. 

Let's fill the library with socks and help our community stay warm, comfortable, and cared for this fall. 

Read to a Dog!

Thursdays from 4:15 to 5pm 

Call the Children's Desk to reserve your 15-minute reading slot!  (603) 542-7017
