The library's collection includes non-fiction, biographies, reference materials and audio books on CD’s. A vast selection of fiction, non-fiction, mystery, biography and large print books are shelved on the ground floor for easy access. An elevator connects all three floors of books for your convenience. For children and juvenile readers, there is a specially designed area that houses their books.
