Houston County Public Library Nola Brantley Memorial Library

BEWARE of local people in the area who utilize this library. It’s that part of town and they will come in there with their crying baby. No shame to other people trying to take exams or study or read or enjoy silence. It’s kind of like that’s the point of a library.

Yes it is a library, but there are also toys for a reason and even the most well behaved children can get loud on ocassion. The eye rolls and huffing and puffing and scolding are not necessary especially if a child is doing nothing to damage property, or hur

I love the public library system in Houston county. The staff are diverse, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The buildings are clean and user friendly. I highly recommend the whole family come out to enjoy all the kid friendly activities available.

Always a blast at the local library. We came in to read and ended up participating in a scavenger hunt, some coloring, and imagination play. a We also signed up for the summer reading program.
