Located in the basement (or lower level, depending on how you look at it) of the Watertown Public…read moreLibrary, there's a great little used bookstore. My writer friend and I were looking for some reference materials, and having exhausted most of our standard resources, decided to try here. While small, there's a wide range of genera to chose from, including health (men's and women's), art, cooking, history, biographies, and, of course, fiction. There's an extensive selection of children's books, and a surprising number of antique and collectable books available. My friend and I both found some good reference books, and I picked up a couple of cookbooks as well. The prices are right (I think the most expensive book was $4, and that was a recent fiction release), and the volunteers are friendly. Keep in mind, the selection is constantly changing. Need a book? You could always borrow one from the stacks upstairs, but the ownership of a book is a special thing, and this is the place to find a book for keeps.

When I was there, an individual was having a meeting with who I think was a social worker. I wouldn't identify this as a quiet working space but I did notice there was a computer lab at the other end of the building and while there weren't large workstations, it seemed like this area might be a bit quieter. Needed to check in with a library host to get access to a computer and so I ended up going back into the other room. Read for awhile and then headed out. Spoiled with my hometown library and I'm comparing the two but the outside reading area seemed quite lovely and despite being a bit outdated, this library had far more adult reading materials than my own!

I was the only kid in the group who knew that our Vice President's name was Lyndon Johnson. But he wasn't our Vice President any more. As we approach the 50th anniversary of that terrible day, I want to remember the wit and charm and charisma of JFK. When he was running for President, he made a campaign stop in Waterbury on November 6, 1960. A crowd of over 40,000 packed the Waterbury Green at 3:00 AM to welcome him to Waterbury. He was elected President two days later. In 1962, Kennedy returned to Waterbury. This marker commemorates those historic days when the President visited. A JFK quote from that second visit (there was no third visit although it was promised) is inscribed on the plaque: "I must say, having been here at three o'clock in the morning and now at six-thirty in the evening, that Waterbury is either the easiest city in the United States to get a crowd in, or it has the best democrats in the United States. In any case, our meeting here two years ago at three in the morning was the high point of the 1960 campaign, and we will meet at three o'clock in the morning the last week of the 1964 campaign and see what's going to happen then." The second inscription reads: This plaque is presented to the John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial Library By the townspeople of Wolcott, Connecticut, In gratitude to the only president in history to honor the Waterbury area by his continued promises to return His pledge was fulfilled in the fall of 1964 by the late president's brother Robert F. Kennedy Who has accepted this plaque on the anniversary of that promise. We hope that his library and the examples set therein, Will serve as an "Eternal Flame" By which future generations of Americans will be guided Presentation made at The Kennedy Memorial Library Ball State Armory, Waterbury, Conn. The plaque is not in the best of shape and is rather faded. It's located at the base of an exterior wall at the Hotel Elton building, and is very easy to miss, which is a real shame.
