Welcome to the Rockport Public Library
A small town library where everyone is greeted with a smile. Serving as your community-centered library for 100 years and counting! Explore our Future Planning process to learn how we'll move into the next century together.
Mission Statement:
Rockport Public Library is committed to providing the best possible free library service to all of the residents of the Town of Rockport. The library will identify and respond to the needs of our community of library users and seek to provide services that will meet these needs.
News!
UPDATE – While the library will still be closed Monday the 26th and Tuesday the 27th we will REOPEN Wednesday the 28th at 11am!!!!
We can’t wait to open our doors to you once again.
A PIPE BURST IN THE BUILDING AND WE ARE A BIT SOGGY.
The good news is the flooding that happened over night seems to have caused the collection no real damage. All the computer gear seems to be in fine working order too.
The drying out and cleaning up is going to take a little longer. We won't be open to the public Friday the 23rd through Tuesday the 27th. We miss all our library friends and can't wait to open the doors and see you again.
Don't worry if you have books due. We won't be fining anyone for late books during this closure. We do ask if you have books to return please hold on to them until we reopen.
We are sorry for the inconvenience and are working hard to reopen as soon as we can.
Dear Stuffed Animals of Rockport,
We are so sorry that we have to postpone our sleepover. We had a pipe burst and the Library flooded a little bit. But don’t worry the books are all safe! We will let you know as soon as we can when our sleepover can happen.
Warm Regards
The Rockport Public Library

Update on Future Planning
After many meentings, public comments and debate the Rockport Select Board has choosen 1 Limerock street to be the location for the a new library. If you would like to watch the meetings that led to that decision click here.
Particular emphasis will be put on parking and accessibility in the new design at 1 Limerock.
There is still a lot of hard work to go but I am sure with community input and forward thinking we will be able to build a wonderful library for Rockport.
We can now take donations online!!! Support the Rockport Public Library by donating to the library’s General Fund. This fund does everything from buying the books to keeping the lights on and the internet running. We couldn’t do what we do without your generous support.
