It's National Library Week. Celebrate Homer’s fantastic public library, its staff, and volunteers.

“Bad libraries build collections; good libraries build services; great libraries build communities.” 
                                                                                                                                                                                                 R. David Lankes

 

We have a great library!  Homer Public Library not only connects people to a wealth of print and digital information, it connects people to people through community programs and activities promoting literacy, lifelong learning, and innovation.  See how the library serves the Homer community by clicking on this link:  2015 Year in Review.  This is the transformative nature of public libraries.
