The Main
Library is located in the heart of downtown Brockton. Built in 1913 with a
$110,000 donation from philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, the library has had
a long history of serving the
people of Brockton. The library just completed a $12.1 million renovation/addition
project to improve these services.
The downtown
library contains a diverse collection of books, videos, audio recordings,
magazines and newspapers. The Children's
Room provides programs and materials for children
of all ages. The fiction room lends out fiction,
mysteries, and large-print books.
Our
reference area contains reference books and the non-fiction
collection. All
videos, books on tape and music recordings are located in the Audio
