Vermont Libraries, Working Together

In late 2007, a group of approximately 15 libraries joined together to provide downloadable audio book service to the State of Vermont. The Green Mountain Library Consortium was officially born in 2008 from these initial meetings, and now has over 155 members from public, school, academic and special libraries, with a service population of over 400,000.

Our mission is to provide Vermont's libraries with access to goods and services otherwise unattainable, through the power of partnerships and collective purchasing. This is summed up in the consortium's tagline: Vermont Libraries, Working Together.
