The Workshop has extended its hours to offer Open Maker Hours noon to 4 PM every Saturday afternoon!
The Concord Free Public Library has been designated a “Certified Sustainable Library” through the Sustainable Libraries Initiative’s award-winning Sustainable Library Certification Program (SLCP).
The Library addresses physical, mental, and emotional health with educational programs and services for the community during Wellness Week, May 18 - 25.
Celebrate Earth Month by borrowing one of the Library's brand new Citizen Science Kits! Each kit comes with everything you need to collect real scientific data and submit them to environmental research and advocacy organizations across the country, including NASA and the National Science Foundation.
We are pleased to introduce Brainfuse CollegeNow and Brainfuse HelpNow - two e-resources from Brainfuse. In-Library access is available to all. Remote access is available to our Concord residents with a library card.

Dr. Andrea Resciniti's giant gingerbread house 2023 is on display in the Main Library Lobby through Sunday, January 14. This is the 29th gingerbread house Dr. Resciniti, a surgeon at Emerson Hospital, has crafted and donated to the Concord Free Public Library since 1993. The freshly baked gingerbread house contains 31 batches of gingerbread and weighs over 100 pounds. We thank Dr. Resciniti for her time and generosity.
