Rathbun Free Memorial Library

Excellent little library on small town. Ciean, cool well lit, excellent seating, tables. They have PCs, internet, WC. Downstairs children's section. Upstairs historical section, very appropriate for an old small town. Reading room with current newspapers. Everything you could want.

Staff are caring, courteous and provide excellent service. The Rathbun staff go above and beyond to meet clients requests. If a book is not available then they will go out of their way to locate the book via a partnering library. We are blessed to have two librarys in town, one in East Haddam, The Rathbun Memorial Library and the other library East Haddam Free Public Library is in the Moodus section of town. Both libraries have alternating evening hours with complimentary and interesting programs offered to the public.
