Pedro Bay Village Council

The Samuel B. Foss Library serves as a critical outlet for lifelong learning in rural Pedro Bay, Alaska, because there is currently no school in the area. The library provides an organized, welcoming, and comfortable environment where community members of all ages can access information in electronic, print, and audio/visual formats. For many in the community, the library provides the only access to computers and the internet, which patrons use for education and to conduct job searches. In addition to providing core services, library staff will enhance skills by attending the Alaska Library Association conference.
