Live Book Chat on Facebook: Join LPL staff at 11 p.m. Tuesdays for a weekly conversation about what we’re reading via Facebook Live. Make suggestions, share your thoughts, find resources and get personalized recommendations from our librarians. Viewers can watch last week’s recorded broadcast, along with a list of the books we mentioned in the order we mentioned them.

Virtual Celebration of National Poetry Month: The library is hosting Maine poets reading Maine poetry (and others) throughout the month of April on our Facebook, Instagram and YouTube accounts. The library is thrilled to welcome Maine’s Poet Laureate, Stu Kestenbaum. Keep an eye out all through April for other Maine poets.

Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
