A public library is a long-term investment for a town. It provides entertainment and enlightenment, and it demonstrates a community’s commitment to providing unbiased information and opportunities for life-long learning, as well as access to recreational reading and cultural programming. The library fosters a sense of community through shared public space, and as the needs of that community change, the library must evolve in furtherance of its mission.
At the Amherst Town Library, we are committed to providing the highest quality service in a warm, respectful, and professional environment. While we will continue to offer traditional library services, we will also explore trends that may lead to new and innovative offerings.
