The Worcester Public Library (WPL) is a vital community hub dedicated to fostering literacy, lifelong learning, and the free exchange of ideas. Serving the residents of Worcester County, WPL operates seven branches throughout the city, offering a wide array of resources including books, audiobooks, digital media, and access to databases. Beyond traditional services, the library provides essential community support such as computer access, printing, 3D printing, notary services, and museum passes. WPL is committed to intellectual freedom and personal growth, offering diverse programming for all ages, including classes for job skills, early learning environments like Playscape, and dedicated spaces for teens. The library also extends its reach through virtual services and the "One City, One Library" initiative, which places branches in elementary schools to support student achievement. With a mission to serve everyone with excellence in a welcoming environment, WPL actively adapts to community needs through innovation and a commitment to equity across all its locations.
