Library Commission

The Livonia Public Library serves our community through two locations: the Carl Sandburg Library and the Robert and Janet Bennett Civic Center Library. The Library Director and the Library Commission administer all programs, services, and collections at both library locations.  

The Public is invited to attend all Library Commission Meetings and Library events. The Library will make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities upon adequate notice. If you need assistance, please call the Bennett Civic Center Library at 734-466-2491 or email [email protected].
