Phoenix Library

Jackson County Library Services (JCLS) serves the 220,000 residents of Jackson County with 15 branches. The mission of the Jackson County Library District is to connect everyone to information, ideas, and each other. We provide a wide range of children’s, teen, and adult physical and electronic resources and collections as well as outreach services, including book talks for elementary and middle school students, services for homebound patrons, and outreach to childcare centers. Our ever-changing calendar of programs and events is diverse, including musical performances, lectures, art exhibits, classes, book groups, storytimes, and more. In 2015, JCLS adopted the 2016-2021 strategic plan, which was augmented by a new strategic roadmap in 2021.
