Mission Statement

The mission of the Northside Children's Community Library (NCCL) is to provide free access to books and technology, innovative programming, and tutoring services to meet the educational and cultural needs of all Springfield area children.

Description

NCCL is located in Springfield's historic Enos Park Neighborhood. When the City of Springfield closed the North Branch Library in the mostly low income neighborhood, the children who used that library no longer had access to books or computers for studying and homework. Members of Third Presbyterian Church saw a need, the church had the space and the library was born. Although the library is affiliated with the church, it is a non-sectarian library and is open to all children in Springfield.
