Our Future Starts Today!
Simpson Memorial: Part library,
part museum, all community resource.
Founded in 1921 by Jean Walker Simpson in memory of her father, the John Woodruff Simpson memorial library has served the community as a gathering place and a place to learn, connect with history, and be inspired for the past 100 years. Today, the library welcomes you, whether you are looking for a good book, high-speed internet, a ping-pong table, or want to visit the Brassknocker Farm barn replica in the children’s room. The library has a rich collection of books, including a strong Vermont collection, as well as a collection of artifacts from Craftsbury and around the world. We look forward to seeing you at the library!
