More InfoMORE THAN A LIBRARY
This isn’t your average library. At the North Manchester Public Library, imagination, creativity, and community come alive for visitors of all ages. Explore our kid-friendly playroom, enjoy live music, attend movie nights on our big screen, or eat something delicious at our mobile kitchen workshops. During our programs you can challenge friends to a Mario Kart showdown, harvest herbs and veggies in our gardens, and bring your ideas to life with 3D printing. Take part in wellness and movement classes, dive into dozens of programs for every interest, or check out ever-changing resources like museum passes, STEM kits, and mobile hotspots. With over 80,000 visits last year, there’s a reason people keep coming back—come see all the ways this library is anything but ordinary.
