It is open six days and five nights per week with a staff of nine including the librarian, a children's librarian and a newly appointed teen librarian. It has a total media collection of almost 37,000 items, including books, magazines, videotapes, compact disks, art prints, and books on tape. Museum passes are also available to three Boston and eight New Hampshire museums. The staff has also researched and recommended web sites for various interests from gardens to Native Americans.
