Lincolnville Community Library

Lincolnville Community Library Lincolnville Community Library The new Lincolnville Community Library opened on February 1, 2014, in a renovated one-room schoolhouse built originally in 1849.

The opening date was just fifteen months after nearly 200 people gathered to grab a long rope and help pull the shell of the old building, owned by the Lincolnville Historical Society, across Main Street to a formerly vacant lot. A large team of skilled volunteers and professional contractors spent much of 2013 renovating the schoolhouse, giving it everything from a new roof and clean white clapbo

ards to insulation, refurbished windows, and a beautiful red-birch floor. They also built the addition that houses the workroom for librarians and a bathroom. Next to the library building, a crew led by women built the two wooden sheds for the Jackie Watts Open-air Museum that houses historical exhibits. Today the library is thriving, with a growing collection of books, free wifi, and regular programs such as author talks, a book discussion group, and a needlework group.
