North Adams Library Building
The New North Adams Library Building
Ground was broken on September 10, 2012 for a new North Adams Public Library building. Significant progress has been made on the building project, and the library hopes to open at the end of Summer, 2013. Work progresses on the interior, and the parking lot still remains to be completed.
Currently, the North Adams Library is housed in a single room in the Seaman Community Building. The new library building will be 5000 square feet, and will house over 25,000 items, including books, DVDs, audiobooks, newspapers and magazines, and children's materials. The new library is located on Moores Road in Seaman, next to the North Adams High School, easily accessible from State Route 32, and will serve Seaman, Winchester, Cherry Fork, and the surrounding area.
Library Offers New, Improved Online Catalog
The Adams County Public Library is pleased that our updated Online Catalog is now available to patrons! The new catalog is easy to use, and makes searching for items, refining search results, and requesting materials quick and intuitive.
