About Lucy Robbins Welles Library

The Lucy Robbins Welles Library is a beloved fixture of the community. Opened in 1912, the library was named in honor of Miss Welles’ sister, Lucy Robbins Welles, who had bequeathed a generous sum of money and donated the land for the library’s construction. The original building still stands today, a testament to the community’s commitment to lifelong learning. Today, the Lucy Robbins Welles Library is a vibrant hub of activity, offering a variety of resources and services for the community. From books to digital materials, audio-visual equipment to special programming, the library continues to meet the changing needs of our community. With the library's rich history, it is a source of pride for the town and a reminder of the importance of learning and knowledge.
