Discover More Than Books at the Library in Fayetteville

If you think the library only has books, you'll be surprised by what you can find there. Cumberland County Public Library is just a short walk from our Fayetteville apartments.

Books, Videos, and Music

In addition to traditional books, the library offers an extensive selection of free downloads of e-books and audiobooks with Libby. For documentary lovers, check out Films on Demand to stream documentaries and how-to videos on many different topics or enjoy hours of music with Freegal Stream.

Research Resources

For research aficionados, the library offers access to many research resources. For example, you can discover local history with the Historic Digital Newspaper Collections dating back to 1751. Or perhaps take a trip in time with the New York Times archived newspapers going back as far as 1851. And for genealogy enthusiasts, check out Ancestry for their exceptional databases.

Learning Languages

Everyone knows that learning a new language takes time and effort, and the library is here to help you on your learning adventure with Transparent Language. Transparent Language offers over a hundred languages, even the languages that are not very common, and English lessons specifically designed for particular speakers, like English for Spanish speakers or English for Japanese speakers, to name a few.

Events

To make your visit more interesting, check out book clubs for you to enjoy in person, or if you wish to stay home, join an online books club and still participate in the adventures, the mystery, and the discussions. In addition, the library plans special guest lectures on different topics, DIY and craft programs, reading challenges, financial literacy, and genealogy programs throughout the year, so check the library events schedule to see what is coming up.

Today's libraries are not what they used to be many years ago. There is always something to learn and something to discover. After spending some time at your local library, consider stopping by the local farmer's market and picking up just about anything you may need to make a delicious dinner at home at The Heights at McArthur Park.
