The Library as Place: A Value Statement

The Cedar Rapids Public Library seeks to be a beacon of literacy to all who seek knowledge and understanding.  Our library buildings are the main platform where we connect people to information, experiences, and services that enhance their quality of life so our community can learn, enjoy, and thrive.  We prize our facilities and are determined to sustain them as a legacy for future generations.
