Welcome to the Slayton Public Library

The Slayton Public Library was organized in 1940 by the Monday Study Club and was housed in two locations before moving to its present home on Slayton's main street. The library is a member of the Plum Creek Library System, a nine-county, 25 member federated library system.

In addition to more than 35,000 volumes, the Slayton Library has a collection of over 700 movies that can be checked out for a 1-week period. There is also a song book collection containing over 400 books and more than 14,000 unique, indexed song titles. The library also houses subscriptions to over 50 magazines and newspapers, as well as more than 850 audio books.

The library has a 12-station computer lab for public use during regular hours of operation, and is also equipped with wireles Internet service. The computer lab can be reserved for use by groups when the library is closed.

Also available is the Community Room that can be reserved for meetings and other gatherings.

Come in for a visit, and stay awhile!
