The Blythe Library
Our Mission and Vision
Our Mission: Building connections, broadening horizons, sparking curiosity and connecting our community through literacy and learning.
Our vision is an educated, connected community of readers, learners, doers, and dreamers.
It Takes a Village
The City of Blythe's Library vision began in 2010, with a group of dedicated volunteers and grassroots fundraising, under the leadership of Mayor Patricia Cole.
The purchase of The Blythe Library and Commons site, as well as its historical rehab was one of many projects of former Mayor Brent Weir and former Council Woman, Cindy Parham.
Through major changes, including three Mayors, various building plans, and over 8 years, the vision finally became reality with the library’s opening , in July of 2019, under former Mayor Phillip Stewart.
In March 2023, council members, newly elected Blythe Mayor, Tom Cobb, and along with a thriving Friends of the Blythe Library group, The Blythe Library is once again dedicated to being the center of our community.
