Our Vision & Mission


Vision Statement
The library will be the community center of the municipalities we serve, where members of the community share experiences, information, and cultivate relationships.
What is the purpose of the Memorial Library of Nazareth and Vicinity? The answer is to provide books, story times, and Internet access. However, our library offers more than that. The library provides a variety of services and access to many resources. These include:
- Programming for children and adults
- A clean, safe place to read, work, study, and collaborate
- Written materials in a wide variety of formats including print, large print, audio, and electronic
- Public access computers
- Wi-Fi capabilities
- Online resources
It is not our mission to provide these services and resources. It is through these services and resources that the library strives to fulfill its mission, this is our unique reason to exist. The methods of how we accomplish our mission are fluid, but the relevance of our mission continues.
Mission Statement
To inspire and enrich the lives of the residents in our supporting municipalities by offering valuable lifetime literacies and a community centric service approach.
