Comments

  • One of the few buildings (if not the only one) that's listed on the US National Register of Historic Places and as a Canadian National Historic Site.
  • The library collection and the opera stage are located in Stanstead, but the main entrance and most opera seats are located in Derby Line. Because of this, the Haskell is sometimes called "the only library in the U.S.A. with no books" and "the only opera house in the U.S.A. with no stage".
