St. Charles City-County Library

[2] In 2024, library administration proposed a plan to close three branches to pay for e-book lending and raise staff wages, which are below market rate.

Its branches loan books, music, magazines, movies, audiobooks, video games, and alternative materials.

The library also offers electronic books, magazines, music, audiobooks and a wide variety of research resources that can be downloaded or streamed from an internet-connected device in a customer's home.

Customers can attend book discussion groups, children's story times, teen events, crafting classes, author visits, technology training, themed events, game nights, concerts, and participate in a summer reading program for all ages.

The original plan included three schools as service points, however they were cancelled due to uncertainties around Jay Ashcroft's newly implemented book ban law.
