The Etna Library
The original Hanover Town Library. Located in Etna, NH.
Where yesterday mingles with today, beneath one roof.
Call us the Hanover Town Library because our Classical Revival building was the public first library for the entire town of Hanover. Or, call us the Etna Library, because of our location and our status as a cornerstone of the Etna community.
No matter which name you choose, we've been connecting people with ideas, entertainment, and one another since 1898, and will continue to for years to come!

From children's story times to visits from best-selling authors, the Etna Library has unique programming for all ages and interests.

One-Room
Rural Schols
Hundreds of one-room schools dotted the landscape of New Hampshire a century ago and were the backbone of primary education for generations of children.
In this NH Humanities-sponsored talk, Steve Taylor explores the lasting legacies of the one-room school and how they echo today.
