I love libraries and while this one is a little long in the tooth in spots, it is also undergoing an expansion and renovation. Once restrictions are lifted, I highly recommend as a spot to camp out and get some work done. Also nice front lawn, where they sometimes have performances.

Gaining Ground thanks the library for their donation to our Read for Seeds program!

Probably the most beautiful library I've seen in a town. I really enjoy it here.

Lots of old well illustrated children's books that have become unknown like Thornton Burgess stories. Super nice staff.

Gorgeous building, make sure to walk through both the main atrium and large children’s hall! Also, pro tip: if want a good view (and photo op) down onto the front formal atrium, you can take back stairs up into the stacks of books and wander your way back to the tiny balcony view :) Tons of local authors’ work displayed and very helpful librarians - so appreciative of this library, definitely visit!

A beautiful building, and despite the fact that it is nearly 150 years old, it is very well maintained. Sections of books are organized in a logical manner, and there are a signs that specify what floor each section is on. Reference room is very quiet, with plenty of table space to accommodate many people. The children's section appeared to have a variety of activities, and of course, picture books. Staff is very helpful, and knowledgeable on the books and services they supply.

Beautiful historic library with a large selection of fiction and non-fiction books. Come for the books, 3-d printer, computer access, fax and print services and stay for the stunning artwork, historic collections and striking architecture.
