OUR MISSION:
The
library's mission is to enhance the quality of life for Grant County
residents by serving their information, leisure, and lifelong learning
needs.
LIBRARY HISTORY:
Tax-supported library services became available to Grant County
residents when the first public library opened for business in 1954. In
1967 the library moved to the Old County Records Building, where it
remained for more than 35 years before moving to its new facility on
Barnes Road. In 1976 voters established a library levy. Today that levy
funds ninety-percent of the library's operating budget.
BUILDING AND GROUNDS: The library's 12,500 square foot building opened in April 2003. Exposed trusses, 27-foot ceilings, and window walls create a dramatic interior, while 4+ acres of lush landscaping and gardens frame the exterior. There is ample parking and an outside book return box.
