Library Services

Boy with backpack The services that libraries provide patrons are an intregral part of the library's mission. Patrons count on libraries to deliver services that teach basic computer skills, provide early literacy education, and introduce information literacy skills. In addition to these services, libraries provide a huge spectrum of other services from citizenship classes to film festivals that both meet community needs and enrich the lives of patrons.

The Library Services section on WebJunction offers a unique opportunity to find and share ideas and resources for creating and delivering outstanding services and programs for your patrons. Share your own service ideas, stories, and resources, or build on the work of your colleagues by adapting their contributions to your own needs.
