January 6, 2023

The SR is open to all who wish read/ write/research/relax or to research a specific topic or author. Small groups (up to 8) may also meet to enjoy a conversation about a particular book, to have read-aloud, or to write together, with or without a leader. 

Here are just some of what the Sitting Room has to offer:

• Books aplenty by and about women, LITERATURE, ART, POETRY, ESSAYS,  WORLD LIT and oh heck, lots else.
• The underutilized treasure of the ARCHIVES, with files that vary from the slender to the overflowing on women writers from A to Z,
• An oddly fascinating — and beautifully organized — collection of OBITS of women, local and farnwide as well as from the Overlooked series in the NYTimes
• Ever changing exhibits which vividly spotlight strong points of the SR collections
• Space just to do your own too long postponed work + of course, coffee/tea/and wifi
