About the Library ...

Jamestown Public Library was built in 1915 and first served as a school. It has since become a small community library designed to serve the public of Jamestown and the surrounding community. We encourage you to post your thoughts on our service and the things that we offer to the public.
Please share with us how we can become better and further serve the population. All suggestions as to materials (books, DVDs , books on tape, etc. ) that you might have are welcomed. Any ideas about events and ways that we can become a more integral part of the community.
