Brooks Memorial Library

Brooks Memorial Library is a public library in Brattleboro featuring collections of books, magazines, newspapers, audiobooks, and digital resources. The building provides access to streaming movies, language learning tools, and Vermont newspaper archives.

The library began serving the community in 1887 and relocated to its current Main Street location in 1967. This move marked the start of its role as the region's primary public library.

The library serves as a gathering place where residents attend regular events and workshops throughout the year. The annual book sale after Thanksgiving draws many visitors looking for bargains and rare finds.

The building sits on Main Street and offers convenient access with parking nearby. Visiting during weekday afternoons provides the most library hours, while weekend access is more limited.

The library grants free access to streaming movies and language learning software that patrons can use from home. This digital offering extends the library's reach far beyond what walks through its doors.
