In 2025, the Talbot County Free Library celebrates a century of service as a place of renewal and growth for residents and visitors to the County. The St. Michaels Library has been a place of restoration and empowerment for so many in the St. Michaels and Bay Hundred community. The expansion and renovation of the St. Michaels Library, set to be complete in early 2026, will transform and expand the library to meet the future needs of residents and visitors. Once completed, the library will be an innovative center for top-quality collections, collaborative spaces, technology, and cultural experiences.
The new library will sustain an inclusive and empowered community with the space to realize their aspirations and achieve their educational goals. Modern program spaces will include a larger meeting room, study rooms, and breakout spaces. Individualized spaces for children, teens, and adults make sure that everyone feels at home. A themed children’s area will spark wonder and curiosity. It will include bright designs, interactive play activities, reading nooks, and appropriately-sized furniture. Teens will also have an engaging space that provides a place for them to socialize, learn, and explore. The expansion adds 3,700 square feet to the facility, enlarging the meeting room by 40% and providing new spaces such as a quiet reading room and a library-style-café. Enhancements will also include improvements to ADA access, exhibit space, interactive green spaces, technology, and environmentally-friendly features. The Library Foundation has started a capital campaign, Building for the Next Century, which will ensure that the new library is able to function as an innovative and collaborative
community information and learning center. Please consider giving the gift of a brick to ensure that the library can support our community for the next century.
