Quaint Maine Library Near Kezar Lake in Lovell a Delight for “Bookies”


The Lewis Dana Hill Memorial Library in North Lovell is a gem. Close by the waters of Kezar Lake in Lovell and Keewaydin Lake in Stoneham, I love how quaint and old-fashioned it is.
Step into the foyer of this former one-room schoolhouse and step back in time.
Though the collection isn’t large, current best sellers, fiction and non-fiction, large print books, videos and audio tapes are available. A children’s section is located near the foyer and antique signs are displayed in the front room. This historical and pleasantly surprising library offers something for everyone, including a friendly atmosphere.
Public libraries are centers where community members gather to meet and interact. Enter any of the small libraries dotted throughout the Sebago Lakes and western Maine areas and you’ll be greeted with smiles and a welcoming atmosphere where you can pursue educational, recreational and cultural interests.
And if you do visit the Lewis Dana Hill Library keep an eye out … you might just find yourself standing beside Maine’s favorite horror writer, Stephen King. He and his wife, Tabitha frequent the Lewis Dana Hill Memorial Library and are responsible for some of the updates to the building.
The hours are limited, but it’s worth the visit.
“In the highest civilization, the book is still the highest delight.” Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1876.
