Serving Northwest Arkansas and beyond — Fayetteville, Bentonville, Rogers, Springdale, and Fort Smith public libraries.
Serving Arkansas public libraries
Northwest Arkansas is home to one of the fastest-growing library systems in the region, and it's well within our regular service range. Fayetteville, Bentonville, Rogers, and Springdale are all within 3.5 hours of Oklahoma City — easily reachable and worth the trip for a full summer reading lineup.
The NWA metro works especially well as a 2-day visit. With four major library systems close together, we can serve multiple branches efficiently on a single trip — and many librarians in the region have found it's easy to coordinate with neighboring systems to maximize everyone's programming budget.
Fort Smith is also well within range and serves as a natural stopping point on the route. We've worked with libraries across eastern Oklahoma and the AR border region for years, so the transition across the state line is seamless. If you're in NWA or western Arkansas, reach out early — summer dates fill quickly in this area.
