Mission:
The purpose of Brooks Memorial Library is to serve the learning, information, personal enrichment, and leisure needs of people of all ages in the Brattleboro community. To pursue this purpose, the library provides ready access to basic library services and resources. It seeks to expand individual access to information through the use of current technologies, and offers the assistance people need to find, evaluate, and use electronic and print information resources.
Brooks strives to foster community cultural life by hosting public meetings and exhibits, housing historic, fine arts, and civic collections, and providing spaces that attract adults, teens, and children to read, study, and browse.
