Organizational Information
Vision, Mission and/or Purpose of Organization
Our mission is to support and enrich our community by providing a welcoming environment that promotes the joy of reading, the opportunity for educational growth, and the literary tools and resources for success.
History of Organization
The Library Board, consisting of six community members, started meeting September 2006 in a local church's Sunday School classroom. In the Spring of 2007, we added a Fundraising Committee, which is made up of three individuals. February 2008 we signed a lease for the building we are located in. On May 17, 2008, we opened our doors to the public. The summer of 2008 we offered a summer reading program for elementary children every Wednesday morning. Some children took part in DR. PET, a dog therapy group. During the Dr. Pet program, the children read to trained dogs.
