Falmouth Library Trustees unanimously approve 250th anniversary tree planting and two nights of Movies Under the Stars funding. The board voted to plant a 20-foot elm tree on the lawn near the Main Street entrance and handicapped ramp as part of the town's 250th celebration, with a commemorative plaque. The Trustees, Friends of the Falmouth Public Library, and the Falmouth Public Library Support Fund collectively authorized funding for two nights of the annual village movie series.
Director Brian Stokes reported FY2025 circulation ranked second statewide with over 200,000 visitors; the library placed eighth for e-book circulation. The board also approved a revised Displays and Exhibits Policy incorporating Town Counsel feedback and deferred for future discussion a meeting room policy dispute with the Falmouth Heights-Maravista Neighborhood Association.
