About
Library Mission Statement
We believe in the freedom to read, to learn, to discover and share ideas.
We provide free and equal access to books, programs, electronic media, and other resources as well as professional guidance in finding and using them.
We offer cultural and educational experiences through opportunities for lifelong learning, spaces to connect and engage, and by fostering a love of reading and commitment to literacy.
As our town grows and changes we will continue to enrich the quality of life here by maintaining a community center that is a vibrant and welcoming place.

Read to your baby or toddler.
It’s never too early to start a child's love for books.
Read 3 books a day for 1 year = 1095.
After every 100 sheet is filled, bring it to the library and a balloon with your child’s name will go up on our blue sky chart.
