Hingham Library, MA | Official Website

A Message from the Director and the Board of Trustees

The Library will maintain its current status, i.e., providing all essential library services to patrons, with the exception of in-person browsing, in-library computer use, and the scheduling of meeting/gathering space, while we continue to monitor public health data and receive guidance from the Board of Health about the timing and safety of reopening. We understand that this building closure can be frustrating and hard on people who love to visit the library in person, and we appreciate your patience and support during these challenging times.
