Its resources and services are available to the entire population regardless of age, gender, national origin, disability, economic, ethnic, religious or political status.

The mission of the Raleigh County Public Library is to assemble, preserve, organize and provide access to educational, recreational and informational material in a variety of formats and technologies. The Library provides a place where inquiring minds may encounter the original, sometimes, unorthodox, and often critical ideas so necessary to a society that depends upon the free circulation of ideas for its health and survival.
