During the Tin Cup Challenge June 12 – July 24, 2026, your gift of any amount to Valley of the Tetons Library Foundation and Friends goes toward facilities, programs and collections of VTL. Thanks to a partial match from business and individual challengers through the Community Foundation of Teton Valley, that donation goes further.

The library has always felt like my safe space. One of my earliest memories is going to storytime and being able to check out picture books from my library.Mary Kitto, VTL Storytime Librarian

Cheers to 60 Years!

For the last 60 years Valley of the Tetons Library has been a hub for our community, expanding to meet the needs of patrons in all of Teton County, Idaho. From books lent from a borrowed brick shed in Victor, to computers, tools, DVDs, audiobooks and more shared from three branches and a Makerspace, VTL continues the tradition of inspiring lifelong learning, encouraging exploration and creativity and enriching our community that began in 1966.

This year we celebrate 60 years of local literacy! You can keep the story going with a donation today.

I have always loved libraries. From borrowing Dan Frontier books as a young child, to doing research for junior high term papers and high school projects, to university study and completing my MA and PhD, libraries have always been an integral part of my life. Libraries are a gateway to learning, for all of us, and they are precious.Bill Voss, VTL Patron
