The Barbara Robinson lecture was instituted by Easttown Library to honor her love of books and reading, and to acknowledge her important contributions to the life of the library that took place over many years.
Barbara Robinson is the author best known for her children’s books, particularly The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (1972) and The Best School Year Ever (1994)” Director Alan Silverman states, “Barbara was an important part of the fabric of Easttown Library.” She served as secretary of the Library Board of Trustees from 1973 to 1981, and was a major donor for the construction of the current library. In 2003, when the current Easttown Library was opened, Robinson inaugurated the Barbara Robinson Story Time Room by reading one of her stories to a group of children and parents. Robinson was also named a Library Champion by the Easttown Library Foundation on her birthday in 2008 for her service and financial support for the library.
