Dorothy Porter 1926-2013
Dorothy Elizabeth (Sweeney)
Porter was surrounded by her loved ones and welcomed home by
our Good Lord on September 21, 2013. Dorothy moved
with her family to the Quiet Corner in 1965. Always an
avid reader, Dorothy shared this interest with many people
when she served as the West Woodstock Library librarian for
nearly twenty years. She prided herself on knowing her
patrons' special interests and would often greet them with
the latest books by their favorite authors. We want to
thank all those who made memorial donations in remembrance
of Dorothy.

the library!

Your Group at the Library!
The library is now available
for some group uses. We have enjoyed hosting Brownie
Troop #65057 for their regular meetings and activities over
this past year. The Quiet Corner
Homeschoolers filled the library with music when they held a
class on opera with soprano Sarah Callinan from The Salt
Marsh Opera Company. If you have a group that would
like to use the library, please call or email
librarian@westwoodstocklibrary.org.
Operation Paperback!
We are collecting slightly
used paperbacks
to ship to our troops serving overseas. The response
so far this year has been great and we urge everyone to keep
donating their paperbacks for this great cause! Please
