Adams Public Library

The Adams Public Library System was established on February 22, 2008 with the consolidation of the Decatur and Geneva Public Libraries.

After a planning committee, comprised of members of both library board of trustees as well as the librarians, met over the course of a year to develop a plan of consolidation, members of both boards signed Resolutions of Merger to form the new system. Providing a consistent level of service, enhancing programming and collections, and stability in funding were some reasons advocated by both boards.

MISSION

The Adams Public Library System serves all people of the Decatur and Geneva communities by acquiring, organizing, and providing access and guidance to a wide variety of information and materials to help fulfill the intellectual, educational, social, and recreational needs of this community in an atmosphere that is welcoming, respectful, and businesslike.
