A Combined Library - here to serve you!

The Faith Public/School Library is a wonderful place for everyone!  It is a city and school library.  What a great way to use resources and everyone wins! Our library is accessible to everyone from students to public patrons.  The library open hours are Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 8 AM – 7 PM; Wednesdays 8 AM – 4 PM and Fridays 8 AM – 3 PM.  In the summer, the open hours are Mondays through Fridays 9 AM – 1PM and special evening hours in May through July- Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays 5-8 PM.
There are two librarians.  The library supervisor is hired by the school and serves the public a few hours per week on city budget.  The City hires a library assistant part-time to serve patrons in the late afternoon to evening.  Both staff members make it work to provide the community with the resources and technology.  This staff is here to serve our community members and provide the needed assistance for finding information, resources, teaching how to use technology and finding that favorite books to read.  If they don’t have the book, they can order it for you from another library.
Special events happen through-out the year.  The Faith Public/School Library holds two book fairs.  One in November and a Buy One, Get one Free Book Fair in March.  There is always a planned Family Event for family fun activities, games and prizes!  The Summer Reading Program is also at the library in the summer for six weeks.  On Tuesdays and Thursdays, preschool to eighth grade children are invited from 9 – 11 AM for storytelling, games, activities and fun!  Monday evening offer a time at the library for the adults to get-together and discuss books or do activities.  Please contact the library for more information.  Thanks for supporting our library!
