At<br \/>a time when rural libraries are closing due to lack of interest and\/or relevance, we are<br \/>determined to keep our library doors open and currently advertise on social media and<br \/>reach out to our community often to promote Library events and encourage community<br \/>participation. We often ask: What can we do to help provide a service to our patrons<br \/>and community at large? We continue to reach out to our community and strive to<br \/>provide programs that both educate and keep participants engaged. The Wauneta Public<br \/>Library (WPL) operates as an information hub and source, providing materials and<br \/>services to meet the ever-evolving needs of our community members. The information<br \/>we provide consists of historical, local, personal, educational and professional material,<br \/>as well as recreational, international and multicultural.<\/p><p>Read all WPL Policies below:<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/libraries.ne.gov\/wauneta\/files\/2025\/06\/Wauneta-Public-Library-Policies.pdf\" class=\"pdfemb-viewer\" style=\"\" data-width=\"max\" data-height=\"max\" data-toolbar=\"both\" data-toolbar-fixed=\"off\">Wauneta Public Library Policies<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c99012a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c99012a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7598783 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"7598783\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-69e0520 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"69e0520\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ee0720 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7ee0720\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>To read the Wauneta Public Library Policies in full, please click the link below:<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wauneta Public Library Policies (Updated 2024) Mission Statement At The Wauneta Public Library, our mission is to keep our hometown library a safe,comfortable space to learn as well as a relevant and up-to-date source of knowledge.
