L.P. Fisher Public Library
|
The L.P. Fisher Public Library is one of Woodstock’s prized community assets. Situated at 679 Main Street in the heart of town, it was designed and constructed early in the 20th century from part of the fortune which Lewis Peter Fisher, Woodstock’s first mayor, left for the civic betterment of the town.
In the early 21st century, the Fisher Library is both a heritage building owned by the town and a busy working library, part of the provincial library system. |
|
|
It also houses two specialized collections: the local historical and genealogical reference books and manuscripts of the W.O. Raymond Room, and the Dalton Camp Canadiana collection, both named for and in part provided by writers whose roots were in Woodstock. |
 |
The library offers a Story time program for pre-school children, ages 3-5, on Friday morning at 10:00 am. Stories, crafts, games & songs make up the one hour activity.
There is a Babies in the Library program for babies eighteen months & younger, on Wednesday morning at 10:30 am. Stories, songs, music & rhymes make up the 30 minute activity.
Monthly displays of artwork, crafts & collectibles can be viewed in the upper section. |
