A fire caused by lightening destroyed the Swan’s Island (ME) Library last week, and local booksellers, Patrick Reilley and Susanne Ward, are taking up collections to help them rebuild and restock. Their shop, Rock City Books and Coffee has joined other small businesses along the Maine coast to collect books and donations for the library.
The beloved little library was a favorite place of islanders to get together.
An account has been established at the Bar Harbor branch of The First bank. Checks could be made out to the Swans Island Library Fund and left at the Rock City cafe.
