About me:
The Mario Brothers Memorial Public Library is the main branch in the County system, just 10 miles from the Large Metropolitan area. The library was built in 1983 to replace the old Carnegie building which is now used as a community center. The library system consists of three branches governed by an appointed board of directors. Each library is responsiblefor collections. MBM focuses primarily on the collection of new formats and media appropriate for the community and research on the Countys first settlers Raphael and Francisco Mario, in addition to the general needs of the community.
