Students from the Hampton Consolidated School would walk to the Fletcher Memorial Library once a week. These trips – the library, the librarian, and the books — remain among our favorite memories.

Remember when we would go to the library and Mrs. Fuller would give us books that she had culled from the shelves? And those times when we were sometimes allowed to go upstairs and poke around for books?

Susan Latimer Perez

Yes! I loved Mrs. Fuller for greeting my mother and me by pulling aside the skirt at the back of her desk and bestowing gifts of specially chosen books! She also saved aside well-chosen books for my grandmother too.

Debbie Moshier

Oh my goodness, yes!! She was the best at knowing what each patron would like. It was definitely a rare treat to ascend those stairs!

Diane Becker

Yes! I considered it a personal triumph every time I got to ascend the stairs to that magical, off-limits second story.

June Pawlikowski Miller

I too have pleasant memories of Mrs. Fuller checking out my armloads of books and inviting me to look for titles up that very special stairway.

Dawn Burdick C wirka

That special stairway to heaven!!!
