Public libraries like ours are very invested in you as a reader.
Yeah, really!
We are all about helping you find what you want to read, regardless of what that is. Librarians don’t judge you. We’re just happy that you are reading. We want you to be able to find what you are interested in, no matter what that is.
Because we believe that adults should be in charge of their own reading. We don’t mean to be reactionary, honest. We believe that adults can decide for themselves if something is appropriate for them. That means it is not up to us to limit what others have access to. The best thing you can do if you find something on our shelf you don’t agree with is to just leave it. We analyze our shelves regularly, trying to make sure we have what people want to check out. If something on our shelves is not checking out, we weed it. We work hard to make sure we have the latest reading that our community wants- at least, to our best understanding.
And we are always open to suggestions! If you’d like to see more of a particular author (I’m thinking Colleen Hoover or Olivia Hawker) just let us know. Did you find an author or series that doesn’t have all that cussing you hate reading? Let us know- we’ll do our best to add it to the library’s collection. We’re sure you won’t be the only one looking forward to it.
We do our best for you, because we are proud to be your library!
