Welcome to the Patagonia Library – a library founded in 1957 by members of the Patagonia Woman’s Club, who opened for business in a single room the Cady Hall historic building on Duquesne Avenue.

A campaign for expansion in the 1990′s more than doubled the available space, and made it possible for us to have not only one but two children’s rooms, a meeting room, a spacious reading room, as well as a sunlit corridor where computers are constantly humming with action.  The Library is a true community center, where children’s programs, meetings, workshops, classes and discussions involve the widest range of residents and visitors.

Today the library is supported by funds from the Town of Patagonia, the County general fund, and the Friends of Patagonia Library.

The Friends of the Patagonia Library is an independent, non-profit organization whose mission is to support and expand a community of readers and to stimulate a love of books and learning. It assists in providing financial support by raising funds and promoting the library to the the greater community which it serves.
