Calhoun County Library’s 1940s origins fuel community effort
Wave Staff Writer details how Calhoun County Library sprang from Port Lavaca groups led by the Women’s Study Club around 1940. The Cove community hall housed the library, then moved through buildings before a dedicated structure arose in 1961 with a $40,000 budget and $9,000 for equipment. By 1974 the Seadrift branch opened in 1968, the library joined a regional resource network in 1967, and growth included a 32,929-volume collection and 63,524 annual circulations. The library emphasizes Texana and current bestsellers, with strong non-fiction holdings and a robust reference suite.
