Maine State Building, Public library in Maine, US.
The Maine State Building features Queen Anne architectural elements with distinctive brickwork, terra cotta details, and structural compositions reflecting late 19th-century design principles.
Established after the Maine Legislature authorized book purchases in 1836, the library grew into a central institution within the State House complex in Augusta.
The building houses election records from 1819, women's suffrage petitions from 1917, and the John K. Jones Collection of Maine Library Images.
The library operates Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM at 242 State Street, Augusta, providing interlibrary loans and digital database access.
The Maine State Building combines public library services with professional librarian resources under one roof, maintaining extensive map collections by cartographer Moses Greenleaf.
