Welcome to the library corner where we get to share all things library! One might think that libraries are just books…and if you don’t read, why go to them? We are here to share with you just how much more libraries are to our community than a building full of books. Although the Hughes Springs Library and Museum is open only three days a week, we take great pride in serving as a vital community hub. Children are welcome to walk to the library after school or be dropped off, and patrons of all ages know they can visit at any time to receive one-on-one technology assistance.
