Simply Somersworth: Story behind our city library
Jenne Holmes
It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas and the holidays in my home, and I hope in yours, too, no matter how you celebrate the season. With the recent snowfall and after the driveway is cleared I love nothing better than curling up in a comfy chair and enjoying some quiet reading time. That’s a big part of the reason I am so grateful to the staff of the Somersworth Public Library on Main Street.
I get recommendations from people all the time on books that might interest me and they are always able to find the book, thanks in part to the interlibrary exchange program. What you might not know is Somersworth residents have been blessed with a library since 1842.
