In addition, the library has a Mississippi room where Mississippi authors are spotlighted and patrons can look into their family's geneaology with the census records and family histories that are housed there.
Besides providing these services, the library also sponsors and/or houses several community events. The last Friday of every month, the library holds its Lunching With Books Luncheon. The Luncheon is held at noon each month and has a different guest each month reviewing a novel of his or her choice. Lunch is provided for the guests for $2 per person by the Friends of the Library. Also, each Friday morning at 10 A.M. is our Preschool Story Time. Please bring your children to this; we would love to have them here with us. Other events will be posted as they come about.
Our mission is to provide citizens of Itawamba County and the surrounding area with a place to go for entertainment and information.
