    This is a rather nice, welcoming downtown public library off Monument Square. It is a focus of the community, and happens to be next door to Portland High School. City counselors approved funding it.

    This place has a killer graphic novel and DVD collection. If you're not using it you're crazy!

    The newly renovated library is a true asset to the city - check out the brown bag lunches with authors from Maine and New England.

    Needed some WiFi quick. Not bad when you sort thru the homeless and the school kids that are not familiar with quiet spaces

    Public restrooms on the first floor only. The ones downstairs are only open when there are programs in the auditorium.
