How is a partnership with the Inland Library Network different than being a part of the Los Angeles County Public Library?
Each library system participating in the Inland Library Network retains full independence over the operations, hours, facilities, priorities and policies of their individual libraries. As an independent municipal library, the Santa Clarita Public Library will increase the hours of the Canyon Country and Newhall libraries by 20% and open both on Sundays, increase the annual budget for library materials by 22%, and build and maintain beautiful library facilities. And as a member of ILN, the Santa Clarita Public Library will be able to provide our patrons with access to a large, robust collection of library materials and maintain full local independence over the management of our city libraries.
