a significant community hub and maintains strong partnerships with
local and regional community groups, governments, schools,
businesses, and cultural organizations. Plymouths rich history has
included the library for nearly 100 years. Strong community support
has resulted in a dedicated perpetual millage, a robust Friends
organization, and more than 100 adult volunteers. Pre- pandemic,
over a 1,000 visitors a day used the library to participate in
programs, use our meeting and study rooms, borrow materials, use
technology, and connect with others. The library contributes
significantly to the high quality of life available in the Plymouth
community. Our sense of community is created by beautiful
neighborhoods, spacious parks, robust sport, education system,
cultural and arts organizations, and dedicated community service
organizations. Our vibrant, walkable downtown is full of unique
shops, restaurants, entertainment and recreational options, all
surrounding Kellogg Park as the centerpiece and host of year-round
events. The library is just steps from all of this in our central
downtown location and plays an active role in community events.
