Bibliothèque Maisonneuve, Public library and former town hall in Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, Montreal, Canada.

The Bibliothèque Maisonneuve stands at 4120 Rue Ontario East, featuring stained glass windows and an artistic ceiling in its interior design.

The building, designed by architect Joseph Cajetan Dufort in 1912, served as Maisonneuve city hall until Montreal annexed the municipality in 1918.

From 1925, the structure housed the Radium Institute of the Université de Montréal, where medical professionals received specialized radiologist training.

The library provides free book loans, computer access, digital resources, and gardening tools, with opening hours extending from Monday through Sunday.

The entrance floor displays a ceramic coat of arms, marking the building's transformation from municipal office to educational facility and current library.
