PORTSMOUTH - Libby Fisher Ginsburg, a resident of the Edgewood Centre in 
Portsmouth, died Jan. 18, 2001, after a brief illness. She was 92. 

Mrs. Ginsburg moved to the Edgewood Centre in 1993 from Stamford, Conn., 
where she had resided since 1964. She earned a master's degree in library 
science from Columbia University in 1965, at the age of 57, and served at the
Stamford Public Library for more than two decades. 

Failing health caused Mrs. Ginsburg to move from Connecticut to Portsmouth in
order to be near her son, Philip E. Ginsburg, of Durham. Mr. Ginsburg, a 
writer, is the former director of the N.H. Humanities Council and a former 
faculty member of the University of New Hampshire. 

Mrs. Ginsburg, the daughter of Jennie and Samuel Fisher of San Francisco, was
a resident of Scarsdale, N.Y., before moving to Connecticut. She was the 
wife of Aaron Ginsburg, a principal of Aaron Ashley Inc., a well-known 
publisher of fine art reproductions. Mr. Ginsburg died in 1977. 

Mrs. Ginsburg is survived by her son, of Durham; her sister, Sandy Buzen, of 
Great Neck, N.Y.; three grandchildren, Adam of Middlebury, Vt., Matthew of 
Boston, and Sonia of Durham; and one great grandchild, Eden Rose Ginsburg, of
Middlebury, who was born in October 2000. 

Funeral services will be held Sunday at 9 a.m. at the Purdy Memorial Chapel, 
2 Concord Road (Route 4), in Lee, with the Rabbi Lev Ba'esh of Temple Israel 
of Dover officiating. Burial will take place in the spring at the Durham 
Cemetery.
