Sawyer Free Library Reopens Its Doors with Soft Opening Ahead of Grand Opening Celebrations
The Sawyer Free Library is excited to announce the soft opening of its newly reimagined and revitalized historic building at 2 Dale Avenue. As final touches are completed, the Library will be open to the public during limited hours in the coming weeks.

Closures: Wednesday, August 27 and Monday, September 1
All are invited to visit the transformed space and experience the exciting new features of the Library. During this soft opening period, the Library also warmly welcomes the return of any books and materials patrons have been patiently holding onto during the temporary closure for the move.
