Middle Country Public Library (MCPL) serves as a dynamic community hub with comprehensive programs and services that meet the needs of local residents. Since its inception in the mid-1950s, the library has been redefining the public library. Working in partnership with the business, social service, health, education, civic and philanthropic communities, Middle Country has evolved into a forward thinking organization, willing to learn about and adopt concepts from other industries, and then integrate them within the public library setting.

Middle Country Public Library has many accessible parking spaces, nine to be exact (all beside an access aisle) and easy entry access into the Library. The building is well lit and interior layout is aimed to maintain universal accessibility. The staff is very kind and willing to inform patrons of services available for any need. The quarterly newsletter states that any extra accommodations can be called in in advance if a patron has a concern or request. The Library seeks to stay up to date and educated on all patrons' needs to maximize inclusivity and encourages patron communication about accessibility in regards to the library.
