Introduction
DeSoto Parish Library is a public entity designed to serve all individuals who live, work, own property, or attend school in DeSoto Parish. Maintained by a parish-wide sales tax millage, the system supports the informational, educational, and recreational needs of its constituents.
MISSION STATEMENT: DeSoto Parish Library is a service institution which seeks to inform, educate, entertain, and culturally enrich the lives of all people, from early childhood to senior citizens, through the use of books and other materials, technological innovations, facilities, and professional services.
The Desoto Parish Library Board of Control serves without pay and acts as the governing authority of the system. The Board is composed of seven members appointed by the DeSoto Parish Police Jury for five-year terms. The current Police Jury President serves as an ex officio member. The Board maintains the ultimate right to establish policies governing the Library's operation. These policies may be changed, supplemented, or superceded at any time as provided by the Library Board.
