LIBRARY HOURS & LOCATION
The Library is open Monday—Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The Library is closed on most federal and state holidays. When the Boston Public Schools are closed due to weather, the staff will work remotely. For your convenience we suggest that you call us at 617.227.2087 before your visit, since there are rare days when no staff are in for part or all of a day due to offsite work or meetings or vacation. If you are a member wishing to use our conference room for a meeting or a place to work between meetings elsewhere, please call in advance to check on availability.
We Are Deeply Grateful to the Six 2026 Members of the Henry E. Hess Benefactor Society--The Andover Companies, Anonymous 1, Arbella Insurance Group, Cross Insurance, Safety Insurance, and Vermont Mutual Insurance Group--for Their Extraordinary Overall Financial Support, and to our Thirteen 2026 Sustaining Patrons for Their Exceptionally Generous Support of the Library's 2026 Annual Fund. Thank you to each of them.
