The Friends of the Boxford Town Libraries hosted its annual meeting and spring luncheon recently at the Georgetown Club. About 150 people were in attendance to hear author Leah Hager Cohen speak.
The Friends also raised funds through a silent auction, the focus of which was signed books from locally and nationally known authors. This gathering is one of the biggest fundraisers for the Friends, which funds almost all the programming needs for the Boxford Town Libraries, it reports.
"Today was a great show of support for our libraries," said Friends' board president Bethany Blake in a release. "The libraries are vital to the fabric of the Boxford community, and we are honored to be an intergral part of it."
