The Messenger Public Library serves a diverse population of residents and offers its users access to more than 100,000 books, magazine titles, DVDs, CDs, and online databases. We are a member of the SWAN consortium, and support the sharing of resources. Cultural, educational and informative programs are presented in a variety of formats. The public library represents the wide diversity of viewpoin
ts and needs of all of our users. Patrons are encouraged to value the mission of the public library in serving all of our residents. The Library adheres to the Library Bill of Rights, Freedom to Read, and the ALA Code of Ethics. We support freedom of thought, freedom of use, and users are encouraged to make their own choices about selections for themselves or for their family.
