We carefully designed this online space to provide materials and services to educate, inform and entertain all members of the community. There are a number of experiences, ideas, and skills waiting for your discovery—online and in our branches.

We invite you to take a look around and discover the wealth of information waiting for you at the Chippewa River District Library.
