Description
Staff are encouraged to participate in local boards and committees to stay embedded in the community. Programs and services are tailored to different needs and staff have prioritized access to the library by providing services to any homebound patrons that request library materials and running a bookmobile. The bookmobile visits daycares, nursing homes, after-school programs, city events, the senior center, and many other locations to provide patrons an opportunity to register for a library card, make copies, use the WI-FI hotspot, check out a chromebook, and check out books. The library focuses heavily on programming for the youngest patrons. Sims library's lyceum is one of the few remaining active lyceums available in texas and has been beautifully preserved while remaining a vibrant site for programs, special events, concerts, and author talks.
