This library is special because it straddles the U.S. - Canadian border. Located in Derby Line, VT, Haskell Free Library was built by a very wealthy family in the early 1900‘s and each room was built with different types of wood. It also includes a opera house and continues to have plays. It‘s beautiful. There is only one entranceway, on the US side, and it‘s bizarre to come out and realize the house immediately behind the library is in Canada.

Leftcoastzen That‘s so cool! 2y
BarbaraBB Great story! 2y
Cuilin What‘s also interesting about your story is that they‘re speaking English in the library and in that other house they‘re probably speaking French. So cool. 2y

kspenmoll Gorgeous! My neighbor is from a small town on the line- something weird like half house in US,other in CA - will recheck with her as she told me this years ago. 😜🤯 2y
Suet624 @Cuilin both French and English were being spoken in the library and signage was bilingual, but yeah, you‘re right. 2y
Suet624 @kspenmoll wow! I‘d be curious where your friend lives. 2y

Traveled to two special libraries today. This is officially the smallest library in Vermont, located in West Danville. Behind the library is a little free library and a lovely spot to sit. Moving further back and, 10 feet away, is the bike path with food trucks. On the other side of the bike path is a lovely lake (Joe‘s Pond) and a dock to sit on.
