“Once considered quiet havens for study and research, modern public libraries are creating a new niche for themselves in community life. From bridging the digital divide to offering solutions to societal challenges, the public library has evolved into the essential “go to” facility for young and old alike – both physically and in cyberspace.” ICMA Management Perspective, October 2007

Libraries are dynamic resources that play multiple roles in their communities. No longer is the local public library just a place to study and borrow books, it is evolving along with the needs of its community. One of the core responsibilities of the staff of the Plainview-Old Bethpage Public Library is to connect people within the community with each other, and with cultural, social and educational events. We look forward to partnering with other local organizations to make this happen.

Just watch us grow!
