Wilmington Memorial Library, Wilmington, Massachusetts -- Local History and Genealogy Collection

Wilmington Memorial Library in Wilmington, Massachusetts looks so much like a school, that I missed it the first drive by.  
Reference desk as seen from the back entrance door  (parking is in the back) and below gives you an idea of the main floor.

Local History, Genealogy, Regional History, and U. S. History collections are located in a small corner away from the center of the Library. The Wilmington local history and genealogy are locked in the file cabinets. The table and chairs are there, but not shown here. I didn't speak with a librarian, so I don't know more than what I'm showing here. I spent time looking through their small website and see they have Ancestry Library.




I love how the Veteran's Collection, Genealogy and Regional History are marked for easy finding and easy retrieval. First time I've seen a collection of books, called, "Veteran's Collection." These shelves are opposite the file cabinets.

The above sign and a coffee machine are the first things you see when you enter through the front door. It's the first time I've seen a coffee machine in any of my previous library visits.

Parking is in the back, and of course, there are woods behind the lot.
