StoppingPoints.com Editorial on Hunt Memorial Library:
The Hunt Memorial Building, the former public library, was built with a $50,000 gift by Mary A. and Mary E. Hunt, the wife and daughter of John. M. Hunt, a local businessman and postmaster. The architect was Ralph Adams Cram, a New Hampshire native and a principal in the firm of Cram, Ferguson and Goodhue of Boston. The Gothic Romantic style building was opened in 1903.

In 1970 the building was left vacant for a while when the library moved to its new location on Court Street. It later housed the offices of the Nashua School Department until 1991. The building is now managed by a Board of Trustees selected by the Nashua Mayor and confirmed by the Board of Alderman.
