Town of Pelham Public Library Trustee Statement

This is your Library. Our mission is to provide you with the finest free public library materials and services obtainable, consistent with the prudent expenditure of public funds. We believe that in today’s world, library materials and services should include not only traditional books, periodicals and friendly checkout procedures, but also access to newer forms of information and learning, including digital media and computer databases. Our goal is to help you learn to use these resources, and we welcome your questions and suggestions.

Your Library should offer the widest possible selection of educational, cultural and informative programs of interest to the community. While our physical capacities may be limited, our creativity is not. If you feel we could do more or better, please let us know.

This is your Library. We want to be responsive to your needs and concerns. In turn, you should recognize our obligation to be responsive to the needs and concerns of others in the community. We are committed to the principles of intellectual freedom and respect for the individual, and will strive to provide people of all ages, abilities, tastes and backgrounds with access to library materials and services that reflect diverse interests and points of view.
