Library History

After a modest beginning in various village locations, the Itasca Community Library was established as a taxing body by a referendum in October, 1957. At that time, the library was housed in a former Post Office building. As our collection grew, it was necessary to request public approval of a building bond issue, which resulted in the construction of a 8,938 square foot library building. This served our needs until 1993, when the community approved a second referendum request to enlarge the existing structure to 27,000 square feet.

Our renovated building was dedicated in September, 1995.
