Overview 

The Durango Public Library is committed to providing programs for all ages that are of local interest and cover a broad spectrum of topics and viewpoints.  Particular emphasis is placed on programs that build and support literacy (know-how) of all kinds, foster community connections, and highlight the library’s collection.
