Join us and Margaret Sullivan Studios for a Community Engagement Session to support the 2023 renovation of the Hartford Public Library Downtown.
As a part of the Hartford community, we want to invite you to engage in this process!
The renovation will result in an aspirational program vision for HPL Downtown Library! HPL Downtown Library will reactivate spaces for a variety of services - all driven by the community’s needs, challenges, goals, and lifestyles. As valued members of the Hartford community, we are delighted to invite you to engage in this process! Guided by HPL’s vision, mission and values, our goal is to elevate all voices in the community and to hear from folks that are often not included. We are using these opportunities to deepen our listening and learning of the Hartford community.
You are also welcome and encouraged to participate in our online Community Engagement Survey - it should take 3-5 minutes to complete.
Please enter the Library via the Arch St. entrance. Light refreshments will be served.

Hartford Public Library’s history spans more than 235 years. We can trace its very beginnings to the Library Company, formally organized in 1774 by a few subscribers to purchase a "collection of useful and religious books". And now, the library is a national leader in redefining the urban public library in the 21st century as an innovative and stimulating place where people can learn and discover, explore their passions, and find a rich array of resources that contribute to a full life.
