“The City of Cambridge has never before undertaken such an ambitious library construction project,” said Cambridge Public Library Director Susan Flannery.  “To celebrate this historic event, the six branch libraries will be closed during the week of Nov. 8 as we want the entire library staff to participate in this historic, one-time achievement.  We need all ‘hands on deck’ during the first week when we anticipate record breaking crowds.”

On Sunday, November 8, the Main Library will open for library services from 2 - 5 p.m. Regular hours will resume on Monday, Nov. 9. All Branches will be closed from November 9-14.


Operating Hours:
Monday –Thursday 9 a.m. – 9 p.m.
