The Library is located in the State House on the corners of
Capitol and State Streets in Augusta.
The west entrance, facing the Cross Office Building, is open to
the public, and the Library is on the 2nd floor.
To get to the State House from I-95 get off at exit 109 and travel east on
route 202 (Western Avenue). Continue
to the first rotary where you take the first possible right turn onto State
Street. Proceed to the traffic
light where you will see the State House in front of you on the right.
Turn right at the light onto Capitol Street for access to parking
behind the Cross Office Building or in the Sewell Street garage.
Parking
Public parking is available behind the Cross Office Building or in
the parking garage on the corner of Capitol and Sewell Streets (see tan areas
blocked off on the map above).
Parking is more difficult during the Legislative Session when lots are
fuller and fewer spaces for public parking.
Accessibility
Handicapped parking spaces are located between the State House and
the Cross Office Building and on the Capitol Street side of the west entrance.
From the lower parking spaces you may want to enter the Cross Office
Building from which you can take an elevator down one floor and use the
connector to the State House. To
the right of the stairs is an elevator to the first floor lobby where you can
get directions to the Library.
