Baldwin Community Library, offers a huge selection of books, hundreds of DVD’s for rental, books for sale and local community events and fund raisers.
HISTORY OF THE LIBRARY
The Pathfinder Community Library has been serving the citizens of Lake County and beyond since November of 1953. It was first established as an all volunteer endeavor: all books were donated, materials were contributed by local businesses, and space for the library (one room in a private home) was also donated. The first librarian worked without pay for several years. In April 1955, citizens voted to approve a millage to fund the library. It moved to its current home in 1970. The Pathfinder Community Library’s WIFI will only be available from 8am to 8pm starting December 20, 2021.
MISSION STATEMENT

Those resources shall include access to and assistance in using computers and other emerging technologies, which serve as a gateway to information resources beyond our walls. Our library also serves as a place for children and adults to discover the joy of reading and the value of libraries.
