Reviews
The Bangor Public Library is a beautiful library; Stephen King funded a great deal of it. When you first enter on the first floor, they have a lovely sun room where you can read or enjoy lunch and it's particularly nice on cold winter days. The library has 3 floors and many, many books to choose from, but don't worry, they have resource computers so you can easily look up a book and find it. If they don't have it then they can always ship it there. They also have a fantastic children's section on the 3rd floor. They offer many amenities like elevators; free-wifi; a large genealogy section; books with large print; e-books; an online foreign language program that offers many different languages; and computers, free to use. The Bangor Public Library also often hosts activities like Adult Coloring Night and various movie screenings.

Nice library and I'm sure they have great books. As a tourist in the area I was hoping for a room or display dedicated to their local celebrity, Stephen King, and was sadly disappointed. It seems like something they should consider in the future.

A great selection of everything. Plus a nice deli. Good food at a good price.

More computers. When I go to a library i expect a lot of books , not so many computer areas. Very small selection. I loved using the maine infonet, there where so many to choose from. With the switch in apps. Thrre are so few books available it is useless.
