LIBRARY HISTORY
The first library in White
Sulphur Springs was established in the summer of 1914 with the help of
a gift from Olive P. Stokes. Miss Stokes, a frequent visitor to the Old
White Hotel, donated $100 to be used to purchase furniture and pay rent
for two upstairs rooms in a building on Main Street. In 1915, the White
Sulphur Springs Company donated the present site to be used for a
library.
The first library building was erected in 1921. Seven years later
a community house was added to the facility. During World War II, the
U.S.O added a back room to the building. In 1976, the local
organization became a state-affiliated library under the auspices of
the West Virginia Library Commission and adopted its new name -- White
Sulphur Springs Public Library.
As the years went by and the library continued to grow, the original
building became inadequate. In 1987, a new building was built on the
same site. This 5,000 square foot facility is still in use today.
