Narrative

The Fobes Memorial Library provides a welcoming environment that encourages reading for pleasure and the pursuit of life-long learning. General information and reference assistance is available to all patrons. The library is open to people of all ages and provides easy access to a wide variety of resources to meet the needs of a diverse community. Patrons and Oakham citizens have a public meeting space to enjoy an array of cultural and educational programs in an historic building.

We offer one dedicated “handicapped” parking spot in our parking lot. There is a power operated door on the lower Crombie level next to the parking lot. The Library is equipped with a wheel-chair lift style elevator that allows access to the Library’s upper and lower levels. Both of our restrooms are “handicapped” accessible. There is a “handicapped” accessible book drop located by the back entrance of the library near the “handicapped” parking spot.
