Help us usher in the Spring by building birdhouses for the town. Birdhouses built during this event will be painted the following week and then installed in areas around the library in order to provide homes for native songbirds. Earn volunteer hours for the event! Reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities are available upon request. Please reach out to library@actonma.gov and include a description of the accommodation you will need, including as much detail as you can and include a way we can contact you if we need more information This program is made possible through partnership with the Acton

Please join Acton and nearby towns (Concord, Maynard, and Lincoln) for the launch of this summer's Minuteman Bike Share. Try out the new bikes for free, enter giveaways, and meet local businesses and organizations along the trails! The Minuteman Regional Bike Share offers a low-cost option for accessible recreation along local rail trails, alternative transportation to MBTA commuter stations, and a fun activity for locals and visitors looking to explore the area on wheels!  

Energy Eco-Night is a celebration of Acton’s efforts to make energy efficiency accessible to all residents— regardless of renter status, income, or housing type. Our goal is to share local and regional energy-efficiency and cost-saving resources with the public, while also giving residents the opportunity to ask questions and connect directly with representatives from the Sustainability Office, Mass Save, Energize Acton, and more! There will be free pizza, raffle prizes, speakers, and a free wildlife presentation for kids and families from 5-7PM. Please RSVP here so we can make sure there's enough pizza!
