The Laredo Public Library is service oriented.
The Library focuses on supporting students at all academic levels
and on stimulating young children’s interest in reading
and learning. It provides resources and services to meet the informational,
educational, professional and recreational needs of all residents
of the City of Laredo and Webb County, Texas.
This encompasses all individuals and groups. The rights of an
individual or group to use library materials within the Laredo
Public Library System facilities during its hours of operation
shall not be denied because of age, education, philosophy, sex,
race, religion, national origin, economic level, political views
or human condition.
Since Laredo and surrounding areas have a rich history dating
back to the mid 18th century, the Library is determined to collect,
preserve and provide access to documents and materials, which
reflect that heritage.
