Books are mailed to the library or delivered once a week by van from other Maine libraries. In the past, people paid postage to send their books back. That is no longer the case, although some restrictions may apply to the number of books requested each month, especially if they have to come from out-of-state libraries. . . . → Read More: Interlibrary Loan FAQ

In brief … The Wilton Free Public Library is located in the foothills of western Maine, alongside Wilson Stream in downtown Wilton. The Library, which serves the communities and citizens of the Wilton, Dryden, East Wilton, and East Dixfield was incorporated in 1901 as The Wilton Free Public Library Association. Although it is significantly subsidized by the Town of Wilton, the Library remains a private, non-profit corporation. We are proud to be a Family Place Library, emphasizing services and collections for young parents and their children.
