West Dennis Library

The West Dennis Library is a full service library and a proud member of the Dennis Library System. In addition to our extensive book collection we have a wide variety of media including audio books and DVDs. And to all patrons with a valid CLAMS card, we offer the newest books available for 1 week only as part of our "Rapid Reads" program. We also have a similar program called "Rapid View" which

offers the patron a chance to see brand new movies with out the long waiting lists, but the title can only be checked out for 3 days. We have a copy machine, a FAX machine and a wireless printer for computer use. Our main area offers several seating areas to encourage patrons to relax and linger in a friendly setting. Five brand-new internet access computers are available to the public and we have 24/7 Wi-fi for those of you who prefer to use your personal computer. Our cheerful children’s room houses puzzles and toys as well as numerous new and exciting books for children, and for adults on parenting and children’s issues. The juvenile reader's area houses chapter books, and the young adult area has many great offerings for the young adult readers. A computer for games and word processing is also available. We have a Drop-In Story Hour on Tuesday mornings, and special programs during school vacation weeks. In our adult area there are several quiet work areas for research, study and reading. Upstairs the library houses the Dennis Historical Society Library “http://www.dennishistsoc.org/” as well as special collections on the Kennedy's, the Presidents, and the Classics. This area is also used by various groups for meetings and is home to our library Book Clubs. Mahjong meets on Thursday mornings. This area is easily accessible to all with the use of our chair lift. Special displays include our Victorian Dollhouse and our Beatrix Potter Collection and a changing display in our case featuring arts and crafts, collections and event related materials. Beyond those facilities available in house, as a member of CLAMS we can access materials all over the Cape and throughout Massachusetts.
