There are currently 12 Library branches throughout Siskiyou County and your library card works in all of them. If there is an item you want to borrow and it is not located in the Dunsmuir Branch, we can request it and it will be delivered here as soon as it is available. Visit our online catalog for more information.  

Besides adult and children’s fiction and non-fiction books to borrow, we offer magazines, DVD’s, audio books, newspapers, and reference materials as well as Large Type versions of many of the titles. 

We have free public computers and Wi-Fi, standard printer, 3-D printers, copy and fax machines.

Our Book Club meets the last Wednesday of each month to discuss the monthly book choice the members agree on. We meet at the children’s park when the weather is nice, otherwise we meet in the Library or on ZOOM. Everyone is invited to join. Contact our Librarian for more information at 530-235-2035 or check our events.

Every summer, we offer a six-week Children’s Summer Reading Program for kids of all ages. We read stories, do crafts and play in the Dunsmuir Community Center garden.

Additionally, there is a ZIP Book Program where patrons can request titles that are not in the catalog and will receive their request from Amazon at no charge to them. When they return their item, it is generally placed in our catalog collection.

The Friends of the Dunsmuir Library group has a book store offering gently used books for sale at great prices.
