📖 About Hailey Public Library
The Hailey Public Library is Blaine County's community gathering place in the heart of the Wood River Valley. Housed in a purpose-built facility on Croy Street in downtown Hailey, the library serves a culturally diverse mountain community that includes year-round residents, seasonal workers and visitors drawn to the nearby Sun Valley resort. The library's programming reflects its community: alongside traditional storytimes and book clubs it runs Beginner Spanish classes, English tutoring sessions (Tutoría de Inglés), a Teens Art Collective and a Dungeons & Dragons Club for young adults. Its digital collection gives cardholders free access to Idaho's statewide LiLI databases, Libby eBooks and audiobooks, and a 24/7 online catalog hosted at catalog.haileypubliclibrary.org. A Friends of the Hailey Public Library group provides additional support through donations and advocacy.
