Bismarck Veterans Memorial Public Library
Description
Offering information, ideas and personal enrichment to all. The Bismarck Veterans Memorial Library is a major hub of the community and we welcome over 398,000 visitors annually. We circulate over 520,000 items and log over 175,000 public computer and Wi-Fi sessions every year!
We are a full-service municipal library directly handling the needs of Bismarck and Burleigh County residents. As a member of Central Dakota Library Network (CDLN), we offer direct access to materials and resources in libraries throughout Burleigh, Morton, McLean, Mercer and Oliver Counties, with a collection of over 560,000 items.
Our vision is to provide personal enrichment to all, and we are always searching for new ways to meet the needs of the community. Beyond our vast collection of material, access to computers, and research assistance, we also provide a wide variety of programs and events for all ages.
We look forward to serving you!

Calling all mystery lovers! Come along to our group to meet up with others and discuss your favorite mystery authors. In January the group will discuss the books of C.J. Box. Feel free to read one or more books by the author (the library has copies) and come ready to discuss their work. The group is open to all. No registration required.
Thanks to everyone who dropped off food donations throughout the holidays during our Food for Fines event. Aid, Inc. received 487 lbs. of food from us. That's almost double the amount of food we gave them last year! This was great timing because Aid, Inc.'s food pantry was running low.
Thank you to patron and local author Lily Smith for donating a copy of her book "A Very Special Slime" to the Library. The book is being processed for the local author collection in the Children's Library and will be available for check-out in the near future.
