We often get questions about the origins of our Library's curious name! "Skidompha" is made of letters taken from the names of our original founders. Started in the 1880s, the Skidompha Library Association was officially incorporated in 1905, when they formed the public library for Damariscotta, Newcastle, and Nobleboro. Join us in celebrating a group of people who left us a wonderful legacy!
