Gunn Memorial Library & Museum

"Feast richly on the noble
  and beautiful things
  contained in books."

Our founder, Frederick W. Gunn, proposed that pursuit in the late nineteenth century. At the beginning of the twenty-first, we continue to strive to make information more accessible and to foster the pleasures of reading and discovery. Please explore our links to learn more about us or find useful information elsewhere on the Web. We welcome your comments or questions, so please contact us.
