The East Longmeadow Historical Commission invites you to a presentation on and demonstration of the historical treasures that reside in our local history room in the library. From town reports to school records, street lists to information on specific homes, a trove of books, documents, photographs and maps are available to researchers and browsers under the supervision of Commission members.

Everyone is welcome to find a good read from their library and join the celebration. You can check out books from our collection here.
