Thank you to the Community Foundation for South Central New York and RCS

Our sincere thanks to the Community Foundation for South Central New York for awarding the Roxbury Library a grant to purchase new desks for our circulation area.  The updated desks give us a more modern look as well as providing secure and efficient storage.

Roxbury Central’s Carpentry and Cabinetry instructor Mr. McCarthy and RCS senior Austin unpacked and assembled the desks for us – our gratitude to them for taking the time to help us out.
