Congrats to Fairfield Woods Branch Library!

Main Library and Fairfield Woods Branch participated in the Town of Fairfield's door decorating contest, and we're proud to say that the Branch won the First Selectman's Award!

If you haven't visited us lately, be sure to do so to enjoy the creative efforts of both libraries.

Main Library decorated both entrances with a Frozen theme, and Fairfield Woods decorated their entrance with the 60th anniversary of Peanuts.
