Hamden 240 with HPL!

Hamden’s been around for 240 years – how well do you know it?

Each week, we will release a clue that leads to a location in Hamden. Take a selfie at the location and upload it to our website, or tag hamdenlibrary on Instagram or Facebook with the hashtag “#hamden240withhpl“. The following week, we will share the location along with the photos that have been shared with us, and post a new clue.
