McArthur Public Library is a public library in Biddeford, Maine. It opened in October 1863 as a department within Biddeford City Hall, and has been in its current location since 1902. It is one of the oldest tax-supported libraries in New England, and the oldest in the state of Maine. McArthur Public Library first opened in 1863. It was located in a room in Biddeford City Hall, which burned down in 1894. The Mayor of Biddeford recommended that a private association maintain the facility for the benefit of its patrons. The major benefactor for this association was Robert McArthur. The congregation of the Third Congregational Church (previously known as the Pavilion Church) sold their building to McArthur for conversion into a new library. The new library opened on October 13, 1902, and contained 6,000 books. A new entrance was added to the front of the building in 1995, funded by the local Rotary Club. More information...
