It was established in 1937 with help from the Works Progress Administration and was housed for one year in the upstairs of the old Methodist parsonage in town.

[8] In 1943 the State Department of Education and Georgia Legislature passed a bill granting increased state funding to libraries in rural areas if they chose to make a regional library system with neighboring counties.

[8][13] Construction of the library was completed in 1999, and in the same year the Mildred E. Ward Special Collections Room was dedicated to the community as a genealogical and local history room for south Tennessee and Georgia.
