The original Hazel Crest Library was established in 1930 by the Professional Women's Club and housed in a room in the Roosevelt School.

When the Warren Palm School continued its expansion in 1951, the library lost its space and discontinued service.

The original Country Club Hills Public Library, established in 1960, consisted of donated books and was located in one room of the old city hall building.

In September 1979, residents of Hazel Crest and Country Club Hills approved a $1.1 million bond for the construction of a new 16,700-square-foot (1,550 m2) library building.

Also located upstairs are ten, public-access internet computers (managed by reservation), three online catalogs, and black/white printing and copying capabilities.
