DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN BUY DLSM PUBLICATIONS ONLINE?! "Unconventional Portraits: Photographs by Charles E. Moody" Produced in conjunction with a major 2011 exhibition at the Saco Museum, this book explores the life and career of one of Saco's most cherished photographers. The Dyer Library/Saco Museum and McArthur Public Library in Biddeford teamed up on the exhibition and publication, reprinting more than 70 of the hundreds of original glass plate negatives in the two organizations' collections. Featuring images from the Saco area as well as the New York Area, where Moody worked in a varnish company, this book is a real treasure of the a golden age of photography as the 19th century turned into the 20th.

"The 2010 Mill-ennial: Celebrating the Art and Artists of the Cities on the Saco" Sixty-one works of art, 39 local artists, two great art venues, and one amazing community! This is where it all started: this book is a lasting record of the Saco Museum's very first Mill-ennial exhibition.

"Saco Revisited" Authored by the Dyer Library/Saco Museum and published by Arcadia Publishing, "Saco Revisited" reveals an unprecedented glimpse into Saco's history. Vintage photographs from the collections of the Dyer Library and Saco Museum show the energy, industry, philanthropy, and patriotism of the city and its citizens from the mid-19th century to the present day. From the stately homes of early entrepreneurs to tragic fires and floods and the rise and decline of Saco's powerful textile mills, many photographs are presented publicly for the first time. http://www.arcadiapublishing.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=9780738572130
