Just a Reminder...
In case of inclement weather, the library will be closed when the schools are forced to close.  After the first day, we will evaluate the road conditions and will reopen as soon as possible, even if the schools remain closed.  If we are closed, no overdue fines will be accrued that day.  If you have questions, please contact the library at 223-4489.
Let's have a safe winter!

The McDonald County Library has operated with
the same tax levy since the beginning...

And think what an amazing return you get for that tiny little portion of each dollar! We offer you only the best in materials and services, and we wish to continue meeting your needs...
Remember, we only run on property tax - we receive no portion of sales tax money.
