From story times to reading challenges, craft activities and other events in between, everything is incredible. The selections are top notch ranging from your traditional hardcover and softcover books in every genre, an entire kids section, media like DVDs and audio books, to board games. You can also rent out state park passes and grab a pass to get 50% off tickets to the children's museum in Portland. They also work with a local animal rescue and foster cats and who need to be adopted. Oh and it has its own parking lot which is always a win! We love it here so please be sure to help keep our libraries funded and head on over to support APL!

I had the pleasure of dropping in just after Christmas to send a package. There was no wait and the clerk was friendly and happy to chat. Just today I received a package that was shipped from this post office - now that's great service as it was mailed just two days ago and there was a holiday (NYE). While the actual post office is pretty small there's still lots of good stuff going on. Fun cards for birthdays, upcoming holidays etc. Definitely recommend dropping in for some hip looking stamps or just to drop something off to a real life person.

Since moving to the L/A area, the LPL has been #1 on my list of places I must see. I love the LPL,…read moreand the new updates are lovely. The exposed brick and modern trim give the library a unique feel. More of a rustic / imperfect vibe than the clean lines / white walled library I'm used to going to (Curtis Memorial Library in Brunswick). Rather than feeling closed in with few windows and a million fluorescent lights, the natural light that is allowed in to the building through the many large windows gives the library life. This most certainly allows for the library to have a welcoming feeling to the general public. The selection of books is spectacular. Everything is laid out in a sensible order, and is always full and well-tagged. The audiobooks on the other hand, have a much narrower selection. I commute 2.5 hours each day to my job in Farmington, so audiobooks have become a staple to my drives. I've been able to find 2 of the books that I'd like to have on audiobooks, but have had use Inter-Library Loan for others; most notably A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin. This is not necessarily a *bad* thing, just more of an inconvenience than anything. I love libraries, and the LPL is a great one. Also: am I the only one who internally sings the Arthur song "Having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card" when I walk into a library? :)

No one has reviewed LPL? Geez, Mainers! Get on the Yelp bandwagon - people need to know how amazing…read morethis place is! No longer the dingy, crumbling cave of my childhood, the Lewiston Public Library has apparently expanded twice since my departure from L/A in 2001. My mom asked me to take some of her books back while I was visiting, and I was not only impressed by the new additions to the building, but also received excellent customer service (if that's what you can call it) from Jane, the librarian, who definitely needs to be commended beyond this review. First of all, the expansion of the library is beautiful - it's all exposed brick, modern black trim, and tons of natural light from huge windows (unlike the old building, which is made of beautiful old granite stone, but very dingy and dark inside). The layout is also beautiful and welcoming - the rows of books when you walk in are well-organized and well-tagged. Overall, it's a very inviting experience. Now, Jane. My mom had taken out this very popular book (The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lack), which apparently got recalled - much to Momma's chagrin because the wasn't finished reading it. In order to finish the book, my mom had to go in (I ended up doing so, as her proxy), return the book, and put herself back on the waitlist. Even though this was sort of disappointing because my mom was so gripped with the book that she was constantly reading passages out loud to everyone who would listen, Jane made the process so much easier and more pleasant. Exasperated after having up the phone, my mom told me, "Well, at least it was Jane, she's the best one there." I went in to regulate (haha) the situation on my mom's behalf and lo and behold, Jane was sweeter than pie. I talked with her about the new additions to the library as she checked the books back in, said that she remembered my mom, and quickly and pleasantly put her back on the waitlist for dear ol' Henrietta. I wanted to hug Jane, but instead I walked into a cart of books on my way out, I was so pleased with the experience (also, lol, I have a penchant for walking into thigh-level objects and often have bruises all over me because of this). I went to LPL all the time as a kid. My whole family are avid readers and we used to probably go once a week. However, I can only imagine how just absolutely beautiful the experience is for kids (and adults) now in this modern, beautiful, inviting space. And given the amazing experience with my new favourite librarian, Jane, I'd be here constantly if I lived in Lewiston. Bravo, LPL!

Super cool suspended rope bridge. I went a a drizzly day and it was awesome. The parking lot is…read morereally small and has about 5 spots for cars. I walked across the the river and back. There are great views of the river. I jumped up and down at a couple of spots and could definitely feel the bridge swing. Definitely would visit again.

We love swinging bridges so we made sure to make a stop at this one. It happened to be raining when…read morewe were on our way through this area but we didn't let that stop us. If anything, the fact that it was dusk and the rain was so gentle, kind of made the whole experience feel more visceral and intimate. The bridge itself is really beautiful with great views of the river on both sides. There's definitely enough movement so that you don't forget you're on a swinging bridge, but it didn't feel unsafe and even our little dog was fine walking back and forth across it. My husband and I hung out in the middle for a while, enjoying the views, cuddled in the cool wet air. It was actually pretty romantic. We probably spent about 15 or 20 minutes here and in that time multiple people crossed the bridge and at least five or six stopped to take photos in front of it, including a group of 4 that asked us to take their photo for them (pictured below) so this is a busy area even in the rain. But once you're here, you know why because it's a pretty cool experience. I definitely recommend a quick stop here if you can make the time.
