The Maplewood Library is undergoing an expansion! Click here for details.

We are reopening on Monday, April 6th! After years of planning and two years of construction, we look forward to welcoming back our community! We will resume regular hours starting on this date, with official opening celebrations in May. 

The Maplewood Community Library is a 6,200 sq. ft. building constructed in 1959. The library’s many windows provide an attractive, bright atmosphere for learning. The layout includes a central circulation area, which separates the adult reading area from the Teen Center and children’s room. The building also includes a meeting room and a classroom. The door from the parking lot is handicapped accessible.
