'''Andover Answers''' is a collection of information about Andover, Massachusetts that the staff of Memorial Hall Library has gathered over the years. It started out as a "snag file" of 3x5 index cards used by our reference librarians to help answer patrons' questions. We entered the information into a wiki, to make it easier for our librarians to search and present it to the public.
