Testimonials
"A library is where you can read the local paper to learn what is happening in your community, it’s a place where children can explore and grow their imagination, it’s a place where adults of all ages can take a class, find free entertainment, and find great books to provide a distraction from the stress of the world. It’s a place I go to when I need to escape from the rigors of life." - Roxie S.
"We really appreciate having the wide selection of books available, complimented by a most helpful library staff, eager to help us find those obscure titles." - Dave G.
"The Whitefield library is the first library we've been so excited about & happy to call our home library! We've been to many different ones in various states and Lyn has helped make this a wonderful center of awesome activities for both the young and old. We appreciate her and this library very much! We are looking forward to what the future holds!" - Theresa R.
"The Whitefield Public Library is an extension of our home and we truly feel that that staff are part of our family. They care deeply for our children as unique individuals and provide fun, educational, creative activities for the community and inspire them in their own personal pursuits to become avid readers and active learners. Not a week goes by that doesn’t somehow involve us spending time at the library.” - Michael A.
"The WPL is like a sanctuary for me. My blood pressure plummets and my worries fade as the stories swirl out of their books vying for me to take them home." - Suzy C.
