In 1994, a group of volunteers and local school children assembled shelves and moved books from the old library to the new one. Today the library is a large and sunny place, filled with books and other media, with a beautiful conference room and a huge outdoor deck overlooking Penobscot Bay and the islands beyond. There are many reasons why this library is a special place.
