The National Library Service of Belize was founded in 1825. It is the legal deposit repository for Belize. It is headquartered in Belize City.

The Library is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of ten members, eight of which are appointed by the Minister of Education to represent a cross-section of Belizean society.

Belizean citizens may use the library upon application for a membership card, which costs $13. Non-citizens may obtain a card for $43, 40 of which is refundable upon departure from the country.

The Library Service utilizes the Dewey Decimal Classification System.
