About Us: Our mission, vision, and how to reach us

From the Director

Hello, Blount County neighbors!

Twas the close of the Season,
Filled with great programs and cheer.
Visitors came with their guests, awaiting the concerts, all ears!
Many books were checked out, some renewed twice, 
In the hopes that the extra time would suffice!

The children were bustling, gingerbread houses in sight, 
Textbooks were studied beneath The Bookmark Cafe light. 
The Madrigal Choir and string instruments sang through the night, 
While Frosty and staff greeted those waiting 
For Santa–Oh, what a delight!.

Our community spirit, giving and kind,
Showed up for our neighbors, near, far & wide.
Now looking forward with Spring just ahead, 
Programs abound, and books to be read

So thank you, dear residents and patrons, for all that you’ve done—You continue to help BCPL’s song be sung. 

Sincerely,

Dustin Goforth

Library Director
