A public library exists to serve its communities and residents - we invite you to tell us what you want and need from the Marion Public Library. More digital content? Bigger meeting spaces? Creative programming for children or teens? Tools for entrepreneurs?

We want you to share your ideas and opinions in a community survey that is now available here. You can also participate by phone; call 800-397-8650 x8917 Monday-Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Vernon Research Group is conducting the survey for the library. Your feedback will be confidential and your identity will be protected.  This is an opportunity to think outside the boundaries of traditional library services - so think big and small and share your ideas on ways the library can enhance the lives of individuals, families and the community as a whole.
