History of
The Hillsboro Public Library was begun in 1926 by
members of the Mentor Study Club,
a federated women's group. The purpose of the library is to make available the
books,
materials, and services that will meet the wide range of interests and needs
represented
by the public it serves. The role of the public library is to provide
opportunity and encouragement
for children, young people, men, and women to educate themselves continually.
Membership in
North Central Kansas Libraries System and Kansas Interlibrary Loan Network
extends the
possibilities for meeting these interests and needs beyond the capabilities of
the local public library.
In 1976, the Hillsboro Public Library marked its
golden anniversary by moving for
the first time into headquarters specifically designed and built for library
use. Anyone is
welcome to use the library for reference, reading, and browsing.
