President's Message
Libraries Transform Because Access Equals Opportunity
Our Arizona libraries (public, academic, school, special, legal, medical, etc.) are ensuring people have access to information and lifelong learning regardless of age, education, ethnicity, gender, language, income, physical limitations or geographic barriers. Our Arizona libraries are strengthening communities and helping create a more literate and just society.
