The Ruby M Sisson Memorial Library helps to bridge the digital divide, support job searchers and entrepreneurs, supplement educational opportunities, improve health and wellness, and much more. We continuously strive to enhance our facilities, collections, resources, and our programs. Our Mountains or Opportunity Campaign is raising funds to make a substantial expansion and improvements to the existing library building.

We plan to add:

  • Community room that seats 150, with the ability to divide the space into smaller rooms.
  • Dedicated children’s room for early literacy programming with potential to connect to an outdoor children’s exploration space.
  • Dedicated teen and tween room for programs, education and entertainment.
  • Dedicated private spaces for individual or small group use, whether for Library programming or for individuals to use during library hours.
  • Collaborative/makerspace room for intergenerational, hands-on creating and learning.
  • Outdoor interpretive, programming and reading areas easily accessible from the Library or from the outside.
  • The 100 EW names will be displayed in our new Community Room.

We need an expanded and upgraded library today so that tomorrow we can continue providing our community with open access to resources and materials that would not be readily available otherwise. We need an expanded library so that our community will always have a place where they are encouraged to grow and learn at any point in their lives. We need an expanded library because we need a place where history, culture, art, and ideas can be stored, accessed, and enjoyed by all. Your donation to our Mountains of Opportunity 100 Extraordinary Women Campaign will help us reach the top of our goal and build our future library.
