My Library

The Enoch Pratt Free Library in baltimore is proud to be “owned” by its patrons. across the city, the Central and branch libraries are claimed by residents as “my sanctuary,” “my office,” “my home away from home” or simply as “my library.” We take seriously our role in providing essential

information and opportunity to everyone—for

free. Our stated mission—“To provide equal access

to information and services that empower, enrich,

and enhance the quality of life for all”—harks back

to our earliest roots. In 1882 founder Enoch Pratt

offered his gift of a library that would be “for all,

rich and poor, without distinction of race or color.”

Every day, the Library serves the residents of

Baltimore and Maryland with that spirit.

Along the way, the people we serve have bonded

with this vibrant civic institution, and we have

responded nimbly to their evolving needs and

interests. By now, to varying degrees, each branch

library reflects the character of its neighborhood.

The Pratt has become a Village Square, where

diverse people of all races, ethnicities, ages, and

socioeconomic circumstances gather to learn,

celebrate, and communicate.

Present in each library are librarians who help

the public navigate through virtual and traditional

resources. As they provide technical expertise,

read stories to children, and teach classes, they

also become familiar, trusted, and often beloved

members of their library’s communities.

The Pratt is supported financially by city

and state funding, as well as private gifts from

generous donors. But the sense of ownership

that occurs when people dive into the immense

resources within our walls—and use our

computers to access even more treasures

beyond those walls—is priceless.

in this challenging economy, the Pratt has become the “in place.” People come to use computers and enjoy free entertainment; save money on books and stretch their budgets with “recession buster tips” from the website; hear authors speak on their latest books; and participate in serious dialogues on race. The Pratt offers something for everyone!

“ the Pratt is incredibly supportive of our students, providing opportunities for the kids to follow up and go deeper into whatever they are learning in school. it is also a great partner in our efforts to improve literacy, not just with the kids but with their parents. the Pratt is an invaluable community resource.”Dr. anDres alonso /�CEO�Baltimore�City�Public�Schools

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Enoch Pratt Free Library is to provide equal access to information and services that empower, enrich, and enhance the quality of life for all.

’10annual report E N O C H P R AT T F R E E L I B R A R Y

THE PRATT “Community-Owned”

WHAT A YEAR THIS WAS! More than 2 million people visited the Pratt Library! Just think, more people came to the Pratt to use its computers, access books and resources, enjoy free programs, and receive career help than attended all Ravens home games. Who would ever have thought that the Pratt would become the sixth most visited destination in Baltimore?

Though our economy has started to improve, the Pratt continues to experience escalating demand as people discover and rediscover the Pratt. From the mother introducing her child to the world of books, to the job seeker using Pratt’s free computers to submit an online job application; from the entrepreneur exploring a new business opportunity, to the senior researching her family’s genealogy, the Pratt is a key and essential resource for residents of Baltimore and Maryland.

We often hear people describe the Pratt Library in terms of personal ownership, referring to it as “my library,” which is the theme of this year’s report to the community. We bring you stories of some of these patrons, including one who brings her two young children to the

Library to educate and entertain her children at the same time; another who finds rich resources for researching his newspaper column; and yet another who stays connected with her friends and community through Pratt.

Our founder, Enoch Pratt, envisioned this library as the people’s university, where curiosity and knowledge are celebrated. His commitment to opportunity for all remains our own, beginning with programs for infants that put them on a path for success in life and help strengthen family bonds. Our early literacy programs help prepare children from all economic circumstances to enter kindergarten “ready to read.” We also support learning for children and youth with after-school and summer programs; we provide career-oriented classes to help build a productive workforce; and we offer the resources to enable every person to become a lifelong learner.

As demand for our services and resources rises, our public funding requires us to do more with less. We therefore deeply appreciate gifts from corporations, foundations, and individual donors, which make it possible to offer programs that engage our children and teens, teach computer skills, and bring in award-winning authors. The gifts that preserve our programs and services make us worthy to be “owned” by our community.
