Do you have meeting space available for public use?

How do I get a password for my library card?
Visit or call the library at 603-835-6661. We will be happy to assign a password of your choosing as your PIN. You can use this PIN to reserve and renew items through our online catalog.

​

There is a book I want to read that the library does not own.
Can you get it for me?
