Andover Answers is a collection of Andover-related information that people have asked about at Memorial Hall Library over the years. It started out as a "snag file" of 3x5 index cards used by our reference librarians to help answer questions, but over time it's become so large that we decided it would be easier to maintain electronically. This has several advantages:
'''Andover Answers''' is a collection of information about people, places, and events that have a connection to Andover.

* it doesn't take up room on our reference desk
Use the search box in the upper-right. You can also click on the [[:Category:Andover_Answers_Index|Answers Index]] link to see an alphabetically arranged list of entries.

Another important advantage is that by making our old snag file electronic, we can bring it out from behind the reference desk and present it to the people we serve in the form of these web pages.
