The mission of the Oostburg Public Library is to promote literacy, advance lifelong learning, and contribute to the development of an active and informed community of citizens. Here children are educated, entertained and challenged. Appreciation of literature and the arts is fostered; and patrons of all ages explore the vast body of collective knowledge and information; as well as experience the creations of fine artists, poets, composers, writers, musicians, film makers and dramatists.

The Oostburg Public Library strives to maintain an awareness of new developments in this age of information, and when feasible, makes an effort to implement new technology and services in ways that make them equally available and accessible to all citizens in our service area.
