About Ropkins Library...
In May 1995, the Ropkins Branch and the S.A.N.D. Everywhere School library merged. A new 5,600 square foot state-of-the-art facility opened in December 1998. In March 2023, the Ropkins Branch reopened following a renovation. It now houses the Hartford History Center Annex.
The renovated branch is open to the community.
Ropkins is open Monday-Thursday from 10am-5pm.
