Message from our president Jane Anderson
It is my honor to serve as the President of the Friends of Lincoln Library. I take great pride in Lincoln Library's reputation as a leading library in New Hampshire. The library is a vibrant place where students and adults alike have ready access to most books, magazines, information, personal computers and many other programs. These learning opportunities benefit us all. It is my pleasure to invite you to learn more about Lincoln Library and become a member in our dynamic and supportive library.
