Salt Lake County Library
The mission of Salt Lake County Library is to make a positive difference in the lives of our community by inspiring imagination, satisfying curiosity and providing a great place for everyone to visit. We provide spaces, resources and programs for self-guided learning, growth and community connections at community County Library branches and at the Library's Viridian Event Center located throughout the Salt Lake Valley and /or the Internet. The first Salt Lake County Library Board was established in 1938. One year later, in 1939, Salt Lake County Library Services began operations in two classrooms of the old Midvale School. More than 75 years later we have 18 libraries, two reading rooms and library services available in the Salt Lake County jail. Each year more than 4.5 million children, teens, adults and businesses visit our 18 Salt Lake County Libraries where thousands of free programs and millions of complimentary resources and materials are available to them. We are honored to remain an innovative community hub that provides equal access to information, technology and resources. Our online library, slcolibrary.org, provides library card holders the opportunity to manage their account, check out books, audiobooks, eaudiobooks, movies, television shows and music or access one of our many free databases – 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Library membership is free to Salt Lake County residents and continues to be an excellent return on investment for the community.
