Skidompha Public Library

Skidompha Public Library Mission and Values

Our mission of Skidompha Library is to support and enrich our community by fostering literacy, providing ready access to information and resources, encouraging lifelong learning, and promoting cultural and social interactions.

Our core values and beliefs: being respectful, curious, socially aware, and inclusive. We honor the privacy and confidentiality of our patrons, and provide a safe and accessible environment.

How we serve the community, both in person or through outreach. Efforts include partnership with community organizations, in person and virtual learning opportunities, technology assistance, and the provision of meeting spaces. Our collection is diverse, expansive, and evolving. We commit to the continuous reassessment of the programs and services we provide.  

Our positioning: Skidompha is uniquely positioned to provide these programs and services because of our innovative, flexible, and committed staff. They are supported by engaged volunteers and Board leadership. The library, centrally located, is financially supported by the Skidompha Used Bookshop, donors, and municipal funding. As a non-profit library, additional fundraising through local business partnerships, grants, and new donors are required to maintain programs and services.
