One of the best libraries i have visited and so happy it’s right down the road from us. My son loves going to read rock and rhyme and loves the kids section downstairs. They have so many shelves of books for his age , where as some of the other libraries I’ve gone to have only had a small shelf. Also the librarians are so sweet and they always remember us when we come in. :)

That library underwent a year-long multi-million renovation / expansion project that were in the works for several years. The library reopened on August 20, 2022 after relocation in temporary setting for over a year amid renovation.The remodel project included the facelift of the building, new foyer, new layouts for adult and children's departments, and new Teen / Young Adult room. In addition, Children's Department went from plain boring room (pre-Covid) to that sparkling enlarged room for kids. The meeting / program room relocated from downstairs to the foyer area past the front entrance. Approx. 85% of all library occupation is different from my first trip to Lebanon in 2019.Just imagine what this library looked like pre-remodel. I can't believe that literally everything has changed in the library since the early days of COVID. Stepping foot in that library today isn't the same as old glory when bookshelves were crammed, carpets were outdated, boring paint and an outdated building that was in dire need of expansion for many years.In present times, you're going to see almost everything anew here: Sienna marble building, carpets, bookshelves, paint, Teen room, more portraits, you name it. Gone are the old wall mural of the John Trumbull dynasty and an older exterior layout that once reflected the origins of that building when it was originally occupied as a schoolhouse (?). I don't believe that library was in that same building a century ago. I heard about that history some years ago. I don't have any further details to tell you about it.P.S. I visited that library on Saturday afternoon (10/29/22). I originally visited that property back in July 2019 (pre-remodel) and things were mostly different in and out.

Small library, but a lot of great books. They are in the midst of moving as they will be starting to renovate and expand their facility in a few weeks. We picked up library cards and the Assistant Director who waited on us was outstanding.
