The Wilkinson Public Library (San Miguel County Public Library District #1) is located in spectacular southwestern Colorado, known for its stunning scenic beauty and a rich, colorful history. The Library District comprises the east end of San Miguel County.

A five-member board of trustees, each appointed by the San Miguel County Commissioners oversees the library district.
