The Brighton District Library is located in the heart of
Brighton. The library building, opened in May 1996, is
adjacent to a wetlands nature preserve. The library boasts
state-of-the-art computer facilities, special equipment for
the vision and hearing impaired, reading room, public meeting
rooms, children's activity area and "cuddle corner" with easy
reading books, and a variety of circulating multi-media
material such as audio books (cassette and CD-ROM), videos and
DVDs.
This is a Class V library serving over 39,000 patrons in
the City of Brighton and Brighton, Genoa and Green Oak
Townships. The library's total collection consists of over
91,000 items. The online catalog not only lists titles owned
by the Brighton District Library but includes titles owned by
60 libraries in southeast Michigan. These libraries, part of
The Library Network consortium, have reciprocating borrowing
privileges with library card holders so that patrons may
borrow from the collections of many other libraries.
The BDL provides Internet access at all public workstations
and to a collection of reference CD-ROMs and article
databases. The library also has several computers available
for word processing.
