  About the Greenback Public Library

The Greenback Public Library exists to provide local residents with current and popular reading material for general information, education and entertainment. In addition, the library provides patrons with access to information technologies through publicly available computers with software libraries and connection to the world wide web.

The Greenback Public library is one of 5 community libraries within Loudon County. These community libraries are governed by a seven-member board whose authority is defined by state statute. The Library Board formulates all policies of the Library and administers all property and funds. Funding for the library is provided by the City of Greenback and Loudon County. The Board selects Library Directors who are responsible for carrying out policy decisions and day-to-day administration of the individual libraries. The Library Director for the Greenback Public Library is Mrs. Clara Sue Hammontree.

Loudon is one of 9 counties which make up the Fort Loudoun Region within the Tennessee Regional Library System. These regional systems are governed by the Tennessee Department of State.

The Library Director is assisted by the Friends of the Greenback Public Library group. This organization maintains and coordinates an active volunteer program to assist the Director in providing maximum services for library users. They also provide funding for special needs not possible within the Library's regular budget. Judy Curtis is president of the group.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation of Seattle, Washington, has provided 4 public access workstations for use by library patrons.
