Library Fair Donation Days at Onatru Farm
2021-08-28 09:00 - 13:00
Want to help support the Library?
The Lewisboro Library Fair returns this year on Saturday, September 18 at Onatru Farm.
The Book Sale and Attic Treasures Sale are the most popular events at the Library Fair. Donations of gently-used, high-quality books and items for the Attic Treasures Sale are accepted on Donation Days, Saturday August 14, 21 and 28. Donations can be dropped off at Onatru Farm from 9 am to 1 pm on these days only. Onatru Farm is located at 99 Elmwood Road in South Salem. Volunteers will be there to accept donations on these dates and times only, so please do not leave unattended items outside Onatru (or the Library) at any other time.
Remember, the Library Fair is our biggest fundraiser to keep the Library running. We make the most money by offering clean, high-quality, gently-used items. While sorting items to donate, ask yourself, “Would I or a family member buy this?” If the answer is no, then we probably can’t sell it!
Click HERE for more information on Donation Days, including a handy checklist of items we DO and Do Not take. While you are on the Fair page, please consider becoming a Fair Volunteer!

Author Talk: "My Melancholy Baby" with Michael G. Garber
2021-09-12 16:00 - 17:00
We welcome back our Sunday Author Talk program with a visit by local resident Michael G. Garber, author of the recently released My Melancholy Baby: The First Ballads of the Great American Songbook. The book is a detailed biography of ten of the most enduring American popular love ballads – songs that shaped the music industry and the lives of ordinary people. Michael titled his book after the 1911 song “My Melancholy Baby,” and he will focus on it for this talk. A book signing will follow his presentation.
Michael lectures on the performing arts, film, and media, and is a specialist in Tin Pan Alley and the American musical on stage and screen. He did the final proofing and indexing for the book in England, where he was a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Winchester. He got “stuck” there by the pandemic and has happily returned to the USA just in time for the release of this book – hot off the press!
Space is limited; please register below. If the program is full, you can email the Library and asked to be placed on the wait list, in case of cancellations. lewisborolibrary@gmail.com
