| contents | Your Library Dream Can Become a Reality Too: The Clay Springs, Arizona, Story. Rothlisberg, Allen P. Community Cooperation Fund Raising Library Development Library Education Library Personnel Library Services Public Libraries Rural Areas School Community Relationship Two Year Colleges This paper describes the development of a public library in Clay Springs, a rural community in Navajo County in northeastern Arizona, with neither financial support from taxes (the town is not incorporated and there is no county library) nor the services of a professional librarian. Descriptions are included of: (1) activities that promoted community awareness of the need for improved library services; (2) activities that raised funds to renovate an existing facility when the library had to move out of the school building to make space for a kindergarten; and (3) the on-going relationship between Clay Springs and the Department of Library/Media Services at Northland Pioneer College, which conducts on-site seminars and workshops to help the community's residents keep abreast of current trends in providing library services in small rural communities.
