Great River Regional Library (GRRL) has been coordinating and providing library services across Central Minnesota since 1969. As we prepare to celebrate the 40th anniversary of our founding on Sept. 25, we’ve been asking you to tell us why you love Great River Regional Library. Here’s what people said.

 
 

"The selection of materials available is astounding; my husband especially likes the wide variety of music available. We order items and they arrive very quickly. And the staff at our library is so nice and helpful, they go out of their way to help us when we need it. They're almost like friends."
