Mission statement

"The mission of the Indian River County Library System is to provide the means by which people of all ages, interests, and circumstances may avail themselves of the recorded wisdom, experiences, and ideas of others. In support of this mission, library materials are assembled, organized, and made accessible to all. Opportunities for personal, educational, cultural, and recreational enrichment are offered. Collections of library materials, services, and programs are planned and developed to respond to individual and community needs. A trained and skilled staff, and the latest technologies, are employed to facilitate and enhance the use of the resources of the library system. By committing themselves to excellence in all facets of the library system’s services and operations, the library administration, staff, and Public Library Advisory Board reaffirm the democratic ideals upon which the American public library is founded."
