Mark & Emily Turner Memorial Library

The Mark & Emily Turner Memorial Library is a municipal library run by the City of Presque Isle, and it doubles as a passport acceptance facility for the surrounding Aroostook County area. Because it is a city government library rather than a private nonprofit, it continues to accept passport applications, and it does so during its normal open hours — a helpful option if your schedule doesn't line up with a post office appointment.

The library's passport agents handle first-time applications, child passports and other DS-11 filings that must be submitted in person, verifying your identity and forwarding the sealed packet to the State Department. It sits on Second Street just a few doors from the Presque Isle Main Post Office, so the two make an easy fallback pair. Statewide fee and document details are published on the Maine passport page.

Passport service here is offered during the library's regular hours, but it's worth calling 207-764-2571 first to confirm an acceptance agent is on duty. The library does not take passport photos, so bring a compliant 2x2 photo — or get one at the post office down the street. Free downtown parking is close by.
