The annual Barbara Robinson Author Visit honors the memory of children's book author Barbara Robinson, who was best known for The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. She was a Trustee of the library from 1973 to 1981 and was named Library Champion in 2008. Her legacy lives on through this annual event and the Story Time Room in our Youth Services room, which bears her name. 

The Easttown Library Foundation would like to thank our supporters for making it possible to continue to offer this annual author series.
