Shop Local. Support Your Library.
Whelden Memorial Library is an independent nonprofit library. Less than half of our operating budget comes from public funding, so events like the Village Festival help support library collections, free programs, technology, and community services throughout the year.
Every purchase from one of our vendors supports a local small business, and every visit helps support your library.
