Recommendations Form : Thank you for taking the time to suggest an item for the Reedsburg Public Library.  We welcome your recommendations for titles to be added to our collection.  However it is not possible to purchase every title that is requested.  We recommend though that you periodically check LINKcat yourself, as another LINK Library may order the title before we do, or if we do not.

 

The current Reedsburg Public Library was completed in 1998.  It opened  it's doors on January 26 and during the first week 5,745 people walked through the front doors.  The 15,400 square foot building was made possible by generous contributions of both time and money from many citizens in the community. The community raised over $800,000 for 
the $1.5 million building.

The library's collection consists of over 70,000 books. This includes a large variety of fiction and non-fiction in hardcover and paperback. Also children's materials, and an extensive collection of large print books. Our collection also includes audio books, videos, dvds, compact discs, cassettes, magazines/newspapers and computer multimedia kits.

 

Mission Statement: The Reedsburg Public Library serves as a free source of reliable information and materials using traditional library resources and emerging technologies to help meet the community’s education, information, and recreation needs.
