More than books...the library is your community resource center.
The mission of the Runnemede Public Library is to create a strong community partnership providing programs and services that bring people together, foster creativity and encourage life-long learning.
Libraries represent a place of refuge for all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, color, economic status, physical or mental capacities. It is our hope that the death of George Floyd will serve as a catalyst for meaningful conversations and actions that would lead to racial healing in our country.
We value our past, enrich present lives and prepare for an ever-changing future.
The vision of the Runnemede Public Library is to be the heart of the community where all are welcome to learn, discover, create and connect.
The Runnemede Public Library will endeavor to accomplish our mission and vision by:
1. Being a warm and welcoming place for all community members to gather.
2.Actively engaging in the life of the community.
3.Employing a collaborative, creative, and positive staff focused on library user's interests and needs.
4. Being good stewards of the Public Library's financial and material resouces.
5. Ensuring ready, equal, and equitable access to library materials.
The Runnemede Public Library is a Municipal Library (not part of the county library system) and is supported by local taxpayers.
