PdC public library

The Library is a place where people can get cozy and read a book, enjoy an atmosphere filled with natural light for research using cutting-edge technology, and participate in innovative activities. It is a place for people of every age:

  • Young children will delight in the friendly environment where they can participate in story time and other age-appropriate activities. They will be able to check out books and materials and have access to computers with programs designed specifically for them.
  • Older children and teens will continue on their journey of life-long learning with resource materials not available elsewhere, both in print and electronic formats. They will have space to work on projects, meet with friends and participate in activities of interest to them such as book clubs and guest speakers. They too will have access to computers for fun and games as well as research and school-related projects.
  • The Library will expand opportunities for adults. Whether the Library is a destination for pleasure reading, research or social interaction, it will meet the needs of this diverse group with books, periodicals, other print materials, technology, services, programs and events of interest
