👍👍 My son and I, visit the Lewiston Public Library once a week. They have a great staff and they have a whole floor for the children. They do have different individual room for meetings or studies. They also have free internet. They also have free books or with very low cost. Their website is very easy... People often mention staff, library, Lewiston, Library, free, books,

You can return your book any time, by using the outside window.

    Keep your eye out for parking spaces on Park Street as that's the area without parking meters. Pine Street has closer spots but most of them are not free. The library's greatest resource is its staff. From the circulation desk to the children's department on the top floor, they provide lots of help and do their best to answer questions. If Lewiston Public Library doesn't have a title, readers can request books from other lending libraries online. It's a great option people can use.

    Excellent staff. Very helpful and bright. Showed me exactly what I needed and referred me to the right people to help first time in every case. A jewel on Lisbon street and an important part of renewal of down town Lewiston. Good tech, Internet, collections, etc. Check it out. Lewiston should be proud of its library.

    I love the Library and its not as used as it once was, sadly. The library also has free Rosetta Stone for learning new language Free ! to learn new languages! Its available for everyone and is a very expensive program to purchase. But its free here! And Wi-Fi is also free. The choices in books, are huge! Since its a library, Of course you can read/borrow. I think it's lovely to read a book and if you enjoy it, you can buy it without worrying you may not enjoy it!

    I've been coming to this library for many years. Many years back it was very inviting and friendly. Sadly, lately this is not the case. It seems ok for the staff to talk as loud as they want to each other (staff), or patrons. But I received a phone call,with my phone on vibrate. As soon as I answered the call to tell the caller I'd call right back, a staff was right beside me telling me I can't use my phone in this area. Yet other patrons can watch movies,facetime, or make phone calls in the non designated area,and even though staff is right there, nothing is done. Overall it's a noisy library with kids running around,loder than usual staff,and or when maintenance might be fixing something. Auburn Public Library is By Far so much quieter, friendly,and seems to care about All of their patrons. In my opinion, Lewiston Public Library should take a few pointers from Auburn. I really used to enjoy coming to Lewiston Library with my kids who are grown adults now. It just makes me sad, and dissapointed to see the changes since then.

    Their computers are too slow for facebook, they need an upgrade. Lots of good books for research, and lots of events for people. Used to bring my laptop down there and chill out playing league of legends.

    So refreshing to be able to use the public library once again after thr unpleasantness that was 2020! They do currently have limited hours, though, so be sure to check their website before going there just to be sure. All in all, a wonderful and well stocked library with consistently helpful staff.
