Reading is a skill that can be enjoyed throughout a person’s life. It can take you far away on a fantastic voyage or just provide a tranquil escape close to home. Reading can provide the answers or provoke the questions. It can ease the mind or spur the cause. We are lucky enough to live in a country that provides us with the rights and abilities to read and learn. Public libraries are a gift to any community. This box is in honor of those gifts.
The Skowhegan Free Public Library is located on 9 Elm Street, next to the Skowhegan Savings Bank. The library was built in 1889 due in large part to a donation from the former Maine Governor, and Skowhegan resident, Abner Coburn.
