Portland Public Library is the major research and preservation resource for the history of the Greater Portland Maine region, contiguous New England, and book arts. Based in the Portland Room, our special collections are rich with printed books, archival documents, manuscripts, local periodicals, maps, photographs, and directories that showcase the history and development of the city of Portland.
We collect, preserve, and provide access to Portland-related special collections. We conserve archival artifacts and offer an array of documentation about the life of Portland including its residents, activities, businesses, and the physical attributes of the city. The Portland Room, is a welcoming research space, and is an active community partner with local researchers, educators, archivists, historians, and educational institutions serving all age groups to preserve and tell Portland’s narrative history.
