1913 Library Conditions Report
This report has been developed by Preservation Architects and reflects the true present condition of the building which is in contrast to statements made by the New Canaan Library.
Let us know if you have other questions to be answered!
In 1951 the New Canaan Historical Society published a booklet called "Landmarks of New Canaan."
Plan of Conservation and Development
The 2016 approved Plan of Conservation and Development included images that New Canaan residents submitted which they felt contributed to the overall character of New Canaan.
A Practical and Useful Enterprise
This is a wonderful booklet created by the New Canaan Library to celebrate their 100th year in 1977.
