Lorenzo Library

409 Van Buren Avenue
806-634-5639

Both the Woman's Study Club and the Junior Woman's Study Clumb (later the Coterie Club) conducted a drive and collected used books from the community to start the library. The City of Lorenzo furnished a room in the Community Center to house the library and volunteers helped staff the faclity.

A few months later it was discovered that other towns in the county were also finding a similar need for library services. A "Friends of the Library" committee was formed with representatives from Crosbyton, Ralls and Lorenzo. The committee met with members of the West Texas Library System to ask for help in obtaining libraries in the county.
