History
Butler Memorial Library, a donation from Senator Hugh Butler, Frank and Maudlee Butler was dedicated on November 9, 1950. The open house was held on February 22, 1951 and the next day, Mrs. Grace Newcomb, librarian, started checking out books. The first library board members were Ray McKinney, O.C. Shoemaker, R.E. Kind, Mable Correll and Zola Luther. The library operates with funds from the city and donations to offer materials and services that provide our community with opportunities to enhance lifelong learning.
