Welcome!

Gilmanton is one of only two communities in New Hampshire without a year-round library.  The townspeople are fortunate to have three seasonal libraries but none of them provide residents periodicals, public internet access, free State Library services, books on tape or other important library services throughout the year.

Since 1999 a group of dedicated Gilmanton residents have spent thousands of volunteer hours working towards the goal of providing the Town with its first year round library.  Thank you for visiting this website and learning more about our efforts.  We hope it will inspire you to become involved, whether as a contributor, volunteer or a participant at one of our fundraisers.

The Gilmanton Year-Round Library Association is a registered 501C3 non profit.  Consequently all contributions are tax deductible.
