Davis Memorial Library is housed in a beautiful, one story, one room brick structure designed by John Calvin Stevens. It was built in 1912 by Walter G. Davis as a memorial to his father William G. Davis, who was a Limington native. The Library is located at the corner of Routes 11(Sokokis Ave) and 117(Cape Rd), is listed with the National Register of Historic Places and is part of the Limington Historic Village. Limington had a library before the Davis Memorial Library, in a small building that was once a harness shop located just down the road from the current library. The library houses an important genealogical collection, including original research papers of the local historian and author, Robert Taylor. This collection attracts people from all over the country.
