Libraries build community! Public funding supports basic library services such as facilities, staff, collections, and operating expenses, while private funding provides for programming, services, and capital projects to enable residents to learn, discover, create, and connect.

Testimonials

"Mesa County Libraries provides a variety of tools that are extremely valuable at no cost so that any resident, regardless of their socio-economic background, can access resources to further their education or interests."

"The library benefits our community in lots of ways! Book borrowing first and foremost of course. I love the digital borrowing as well, I use that more often than anything else. I also love the fact that we just have a space to grow our community, in whatever ways." 

=====

"The library is a place of resource and refuge for the entire community. It is a safe place for creativity and expression, something this valley needs."
