Every act of generosity counts. Everybody has something to give. Consider supporting Oxford County Library today!

On Tuesday, December 3, we’ll be updating the way patrons log in to the Libby app. This change won’t affect your library card number or PIN, but it will log you out of your Libby account. After the update, you’ll need to log back into your Libby account using your library card number and PIN.

A Potter's Field is the burial place of the forgotten, marginalized and stigmatized members of Ingersoll’s community who didn’t have the means to pay for a burial. This summer, a team of historians, archaeologists and students at Western are working to uncover the history of Potter's Field and tell the stories of the more than 350 community members who are buried there. This project was inspired by the digitization of the cemetery’s massive burial log, undertaken by our local history technician Vicki Brenner.
