Fulfilling the educational, informational, cultural, and recreation needs of our entire community. The library has something for everyone.

Our small but well-stocked library is full of the books, movies, and other items you'd expect. We also have Board Games, puzzles, Dementia-friendly kits, and lots of other learning-based toys available for you to borrow. And if we don’t have what you are looking for, we will do our best to find it through interlibrary loan from across the state. In addition, our library offers public Internet access, including 24-7 wireless and free access to digital ebooks and audiobooks through the Libby App. We’ll read stories to your kids, support your home schooling, make copies, print tax forms, and connect you with local resources you may need. And make sure to check out our upcoming events - we have tons of fun stuff going on at the library.
