The Enoch Pratt Free Library is the Oldest Library in the United States of America.It was established in 1882 by Philanthropist Enoch Pratt (1808-1896).They have a very large selection of books.They have several Departments like:They Maryland Department,The Social Science and History Department,The Fine Arts Department,The Humanities Department,The Business Department,The Children's Department and The African-American Department.They have a computer room where you can use the computers for free.They have an auditorium called the Wheeler Auditorium.The auditorium is very nice.They used to show movies there when I was kid.Their hours are Mon-Wed (10 a.m.-7 p.m), Thursday-Saturday (10 a.m.-5 p.m.) and Sundays 1 p.m.-5.p.m) during the months of October to May.The library is a very nice place to visit if you are in the the city of Baltimore.I have been there several times in my life in the last 34 years.
