Welcome to the public library of Baltimore City and the Maryland State Library Resource Center.

The Enoch Pratt Free Library is one of the oldest free public library systems in the United States. How did it get started, what has it accomplished, and whom has it influenced over the years? A chronology which answers these questions and lists the major events in our 120-year-plus history may be found here.

UPDATE: For Monday, February 8 and Tuesday, February 9 only the Central Library will be OPEN, 11am-5pm. All branches will remain CLOSED. Also, the Booklovers Breakfast featuring Hill Harper scheduled for Saturday, February 6 has been postponed. A new date will be announced soon.
