Welcome to the West Plains Public Library!

Dear valued members of our community,

I am thrilled to extend a warm welcome to all of you here at the West Plains Public Library. Whether you're a lifelong resident or new to the area, our library is a place where knowledge, creativity, and connection come together.

Libraries have long been the heart of any thriving community, and our team is dedicated to making sure that tradition continues. Our shelves are brimming with a diverse collection of books, magazines, and multimedia resources to satisfy curious minds of all ages. But we're more than just books – we're a hub of lifelong learning and exploration.

From engaging children's programs that spark imagination to adult programs to engage all minds, we are committed to providing resources that empower, inspire, and enrich lives. Our knowledgeable staff is here to assist you in finding the information you need, whether it's for research, personal development, or pure enjoyment.

But a library is not just a place for solitary study; it's a place for connections to flourish. Our library hosts community events, book clubs, and discussion groups that bring people together to share ideas and experiences. We invite you to join us and become part of our vibrant and inclusive community.

As the library director, I am dedicated to fostering an environment of innovation and collaboration. We are always open to your suggestions and ideas for improving our services and offerings. Feel free to reach out to me or any of our staff members if you have any feedback or questions.

Thank you for choosing the West Plains Public Library as your source of knowledge, entertainment, and community. We look forward to serving you and contributing to your journey of discovery.

Warmest Regards, 

Dr. Greg Carter
