The Bill Memorial Library was given by Frederic Bill to the people of Groton in 1890 in memory of his sisters, Eliza and Harriet. The mission of the library is to meet the needs of the community in a welcoming and unique historic setting by stimulating imagination, providing the resources for lifelong learning, inspiring young patrons, and connecting to the online world.

The Bill Memorial Library is a 501(c)3 nonprofit library that relies heavily on private funding sources to maintain services and programs. All gifts are tax-deductible.  Memorial and Celebration gifts may be made in memory or honor of a special person.
