Canaan Home Library Home Calendar Welcome to the Canaan Town Library, a small rural library in the Upper Valley Region of New Hampshire. We are located at the base of Cardigan Mountain, a beautiful backdrop for our small town of about 3,500. Life in Canaan is simple, and we try to compliment that lifestyle by offering all the conveniences of larger libraries with small town comfort. The Canaan Town Library is also available to the residents of four other towns that share our school district.
