The programs, workshops and activities are designed to bring people together to learn new things. The books, magazines and newspapers are there for the taking.

Event planned to honor June Fisher: January 5 @ 2:00pm in the Community Meeting Room
When June Breton Fisher passed away unexpectedly early this year, she left a generous legacy of $25,000 to the Montecito Library to be used for the purchase of books, and this gift will be fulfilled as designated by Mrs. Fisher. The Board of the Friends of the Montecito Library deeply appreciates Mrs. Fisher’s dona-tion which will benefit all patrons, adults and children alike. June Fisher was a dear friend to many in our Montecito community. She is missed by her family and friends and is remembered at the library.
