Today, I finally had the chance to visit the Peterborough Town Library in the afternoon. My host Danielle drove us to the library right after school and I was very excited to see the inside of the building.
As some of you might know, I'm a passionate reader and so it might be no surprise that I visited the library, however there is more to it than you might think: It is actually the oldest public library in the United States. The library was recently renovated, but they still kept a part of the old building. The renovated building was reopened on September 12, 2021.
The inside was very modern and new, but at the same time it was very comfortable and I could have spent the whole day in there, just looking at books.
The first floor had all the children's books, but the more interesting part for me was the second floor with the (non)fiction books, biographies and of course the young adult section. We spent around an hour and a half at the library and I was able to bring some books back home with me using Danielle's library card.
If you ever happen to be in Peterborough I would definitely recommend checking out the library, not only for the books but also for the historical aspect of it! Hopefully, more students from my class will have the chance to visit it before we leave.
