Decent sized library near center of town.
It was updated years ago but still feel dated.
Lots of study desks on second floor but it can get crowded by students or people.
Library is part of Minuteman Network so you can borrow stuff from other towns libraries but it'll take awhile to arrive.
Service by staff is good but mixed at times as there's sometimes not enough staffers.

The library has NOT enforced the QUIET treatment as many child students talk too much in the library as well as some adults!!
NO good manners by people who talk inside especially those using cell phones 😡

Good longer hours from Sept-May but hours are cut shorter during the summer months.

There's a parking lot on the lower level which can be packed or on the upper street level which is shared with a local church across the street especially on the weekends.

Often hard to find a quiet table to study, most of them are occupied or in a noisy area. The library hours are not very convenient, only open at 1pm on Sundays & closed for entire weekend on holidays, which is frustrating, and the staff is just plain miserable...feels like most of the time they're just doing you a favor by even acknowledging your presence. As for the materials, I am regularly surprised at how such a big town can have a library with such a poor and outdated selection. If they even have the book I want (kids, adult, reference, whatever), it's hardly ever available. Overall, I prefer to go to neighboring town libraries to get what I want.
