Blake Memorial Library’s Vision

Blake Memorial Library is a community resource developed by community members to promote learning and sharing. We aim to encourage the people of Waits River Valley to read, to explore, to think critically and creatively, and to come together to share ideas and inspire each other; we strive to provide them with the tools to do so. Blake Memorial Library supports civil discourse to strengthen and preserve democracy.
