HISTORY

    For many years Windham had three small community libraries.  The Windham Circulating Library at Windham Center became the main focus.  In the late 1960's. when it outgrew its small building, the current location was chosen for a new building.  The doors of the Windham Public Library, with its first professional librarian, opened in December 1971.  A major expansion to double the size was completed in October 1993.
