November 11, 2023 - 1 pm, Bixby Library

The Bixby Memorial Free Library history volunteers will host the Ferrrisburgh Historical Society on Saturday, November 11 from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. at the Bixby Library, 152 Main St., Vergennes. Over the last three years, a group of volunteers has been working with library staff to make the library's special collections of documents, journals, letters, photographs and postcards more accessible to in-person and online researchers. Bixby board member and history committee chair Nancy Remsen will share new "finding aides" and online access, as well as recent exhibits that include special collections related to Ferrisburgh history. Volunteer Catherine Brooks will share examples of local history research findings associated with the development of four artifact and document kits now available for borrowing from the library to groups, homeschoolers, and schools. Selected documents will be available to examine. All are welcome.
