There are so many reasons to love your library—and so many people who help make it special. From the staff who go out of there way every day, to the parents who bring their children to storytime, to the patrons who may not stop in often, but when they do, are reminded that libraries offer so much more than just books. Your library is here for all of you. Every chapter, every season, every visit.

ooks—it’s a space built for connection, creativity, and quiet moments.

Whether you're prepping for a big presentation, catching up on classwork, or carving out a moment of peace, your library is your space to do it all—no cost, no hassle, here when YOU need it.

The Unexpected
We love surprising people with just how much a library can offer.
Our Adventure Packs are a favorite among families—backpacks filled with books, toys, and learning tools, all tailored to different age groups.
For older adults, Golden Gear kits include everything from brain-boosting activities to wellness resources, with books, DVDs, and more designed to support mental and physical health.
And for those who can’t make it in? Books by Mail brings the library right to your doorstep.
Then there are the hidden gems. The Library of Things lets you borrow more than just media—you can check out a radon detector, a car code reader, a blood pressure monitor, and more.
We even offer museum passes to local treasures like the McKinley Museum, the National First Ladies Library & Museum, and the Canton Museum of Art.
The Tried and True
Of course, we haven’t forgotten the classics.
Books are at the heart of everything we do—but we’ve expanded the definition. Your library card gives you access to so much, and you’ll never pay overdue fines. Items automatically renew up to four times unless someone else is waiting.

Libraries are more than just buildings; they’re community hubs, a treasure trove of resources, and a gateway to discovery. Whether you come for the books, the unexpected services, or the chance to connect with something new, your library is here for you—every chapter of your life. So go ahead, explore, create, and dream. Love your library, because it’s made to love you back!
