This library is a member of the Lynx Library Consortium.

The Lynx Library Consortium is a partnership between twelve city and district libraries in southern Idaho to share an online catalog, services, and variety of materials members may borrow, reducing costs and barriers to access for all.

This website and program are brought to you by the Idaho Commission for Libraries and made possible, in part, by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
