Coventry Public Library

My son has an Egyptian project for school. He needed a 3D model of the Egyptian god, Anubis. My son inquired about the 3D printer the library has. The librarians were extremely helpful. They explained the process and took the time to download the right file for the model. After all the work they did, the printer broke down. Knowing that the project is due this Friday, we didn’t think we would get it in time. The librarians kept us updated and called tonight with great news. The printer is working again and the Anubis model is ready to be picked up… free of charge. Great job! Thank you so very much

Been OUT here a couple times.
Library is pretty big but outdated but not toooo shabby. The staff is not the warmest ever… but whatever you aren’t there to make friends. They do occasionally have books for sale for super cheap. Movie selection is pretty big but most times super scratched…
GIANT parking lot– never a problem.
Also been here to contest a speeding ticket– multipurpose building.
If you need a book, part of a dvd + to talk your way out of a ticket, this is your kinda place.

A library
with a
town hall
Coventry Public Library shares a larger building with the town hall. The library is on one side and the town hall on the other side and the are connected by a pleasant lobby. Makes things easy and convenient for the people that live in the town,.
The library part is about 10,000 square feet and holds about 83,000 volumes. Certainly not a huge library but a lot larger than many of the itty bitty ones that many of the towns have. The building is new so the library doesn’t have the charm and history of the cool ancient libraries but it is an extremely pleasant place to check out some books or do some research.
The library is very well organized and has lots of comfy places to sit. A great place to get something done or just to hang out and relax. One very nice feature is that the AC is very strong, something that is very appreciated during the present oppressive heat spell. The library was crowded and I suspect a lot of folks came here just to cool off.
For a small town library Coventry has a lot of events and programs going on. All kind of notices for storytellers, musical performers, CPR training, and event a artisan fair to be held at the library in the fall. A very cool library, both literally and figuratively. A place to find a book, see what’s happening around town or just relax and cool off.
