Meet The Library Team

The success of the Library is due to a partnership of employees, volunteers and trustees.

The core of our Library is a small team of dedicated employees, responsible for ordering books and other Library resources, coordinating programs, managing the check-out desk, and answering questions.

NH Downloadables

A fresh and easy way to borrow from the library. The New Hampshire Downloadable Books Consortium was established to help New Hampshire public libraries provide digital materials to their patrons.

The digital collection is comprised of magazines, fiction and nonfiction eBooks and audiobooks, which aims to mirror the popular physical collections found in NH public libraries. Digital materials are selected with consideration of patron demand, popularity, availability, and cost of the materials.

The current collection includes:

  • More than 7000 audiobooks
  • More than 9000 eBook titles

Our 2024 Season

Community Garden

Our mission is to provide hands-on educational and social-emotional programming for children that would impact their community positively through multi-generational relationships sharing knowledge of agriculture, horticulture, and permaculture.

We have donated over  200 pounds of freshly grown produce to the Strafford Food Pantry and Community Suppers! We have many talented and dedicated volunteers that have created the Community Garden and that keep it fruitful and looking beautiful for the community!

Our Happy Patrons

Community Thoughts

Friendly, helpful staff are a joy. What a wonderful resource for Strafford.

Cozy, free wifi, and the librarians remember people by name.

I’ve found that the Hill Library has a lot of books we like and we always enjoy going back to look at more.
