Niles-Maine District Library
The mission of the Niles-Maine District Library is to Engage, Inform, Enrich, and Educate its 58,000 residents. We have everything from Dickens to circulating Go Pro cameras to help community members learn, create, and enjoy their lives. More importantly, we have a staff who are passionate and compassionate about serving the public from babies through homebound seniors. Every day they make a big difference in people's lives.
Purpose
We maintain collections that are rich in content, providing them in a vibrant and welcoming space with opportunities through classes and programs to discover and connect.
Vision
We envision a public library that adapts to help people learn the new skills and knowledge they need to know as the world changes, to be a place where people can appreciate the arts and connect with others in a high-tech, people-friendly environment.

Additional Culture Details
The staff have had the opportunity to show their loyalty and dedication over the past few months by working from home through the COVID-19 pandemic. They have learned all kinds of new skills, and have maintained a remarkable positive attitude throughout. Now that the risk is increasing as patrons begin to enter the building, there is some fear being expressed, but tremendous dedication in wanting to do what we can to serve our community. They, in turn, have left us chalk drawings in the parking lot and nice notes to say how much they miss their library!
