From their website:

"The mission of The Ferguson Library is to provide free and equal access to information, ideas, books and technology to educate, engage and enrich the Stamford community. The innovative programs and services we provide nourish a lifelong passion for learning and growth for children and adults. Last year, we quickly began reimagining library services and safely reopened last summer. We work hard to provide transformative experiences for our community, and have become even more nimble as we find new, unprecedented ways to serve you."

"Since it first opened its doors at the end of the 19th century, The Ferguson Library has been the heart of the Stamford community, a place of learning and education, a gathering place where people could meet and exchange ideas. Sometimes even a place to come in out of the cold for a while. As Stamford grew and changed, The Ferguson Library grew along with it. In 1911, The Ferguson became a free public library, embracing the concept that knowledge should be available to all, regardless of ability to pay.

The Ferguson now serves nearly a million visitors each year, and countless others access our online services. But our core values haven’t changed. The commitment to supporting lifelong learning, and providing free and equal access to information is still at the heart of our mission."
