Mission of the Bethany Public Library
The mission of the Bethany Public Library is to build and maintain a collection of Library materials in a variety of formats that will meet the education, information and recreation needs of the community while assisting patrons to access and utilize these materials.

Location
The Bethany Public Library is located on the West side of the square. 

Materials
A large selection of adult, children and classic books, audio tapes, and videos are available to lend to patrons.  If a book you are looking for is not in our library we can try to acquire it through the interlibrary loan program.  Our library also features a nice collection of "Early American" books and artifacts.  The public is invited to use the reference and genealogy rooms.

Technology
Four computers are on the internet and available for the public to use at no charge.  Two of these computers have children's programs loaded on them.  Also the children's programs allows young children to access all the programs that the adults have access to, but they are not able to get on the internet.

Programs
In the summer we have a "Children's Story Hour" for youngsters.  This program starts in July and is usually 4 to 5 weeks in duration, being held once a week.  It features local people reading stories to the children, or a program by the Missouri Conservationist, crafts, and playtime.
