Red Feather Mountain Library District Mission Statement
The Red Feather Lakes Community Library is a vital gathering place that provides resources, programs, and technology to meet the diverse education, recreation, and information needs of the community, thereby enriching people's lives.

Brief History of the Red Feather Lakes Community Library
The Red Feather Lakes Community Library was established in 1969 by the local women's group with $240 from the Larimer County Commissioners and 250 donated books on shelves from an abandoned store. The building you see on our home page was built in 1987 with community donations of land, labor, money and love. The Red Feather Mountain Library District was approved by voters with a 2.5 mill levy in the Election of November 2000 with funds arriving in January 2001. It is THE smallest library district in the state of Colorado covering just 37 square miles. We currently operate with the same 2.5 mill levy. The Red Feather Mountain Library District was created based on the 3 existing volunteer fire department districts including Red Feather Lakes, Crystal Lakes, and Glacier View Meadows. The Red Feather Mountain Library District is not affiliated or connected with the Fort Collins Public Library District. A new addition dedicated in August 2005 includes a children's area, meeting room and art gallery. After the 2005 building project, the Library's total square feet is 3163. Operated by the Red Feather Mountain Library District, we offer full library services including a local history section, free high speed Internet access, copier, FAX service, audiobooks, videos and a toy lending library for children. We also offer many programs for children and adults and serve as a friendly social center.
