Check out the Changes!

Park County Libraries are constantly evolving and changing with the needs of their patrons. That is why they are extending hours and adding more checkouts to patrons’ cards.

New Hours

As of September 19, 2022, Powell and Cody Libraries will be extending their open hours!

This gives patrons more time to stop by and enjoy all of the resources libraries have to offer.

How do you gain access to these resources?

The first stop is a free library card. A library card gives you access to free books, movies, magazines, online resources & databases, ebooks, audiobooks, music, games, and so much more. To get signed up for a card, bring a photo I.D. and proof of a Park County address to the library.
