📚 About Montgomery City-County Public Library

Montgomery City-County Public Library (MCCPL) is the public library system serving the City of Montgomery and all of Montgomery County, Alabama. The system was formed as a consolidated city-county entity so that one tax-supported library network covers the entire county — from the Main Library on Atlanta Highway to regional branches including the E.L. Lowder Regional Library in east Montgomery and the Rufus A. Lewis Regional Library serving the south. The Bertha Pleasant Williams Library honors Rosa Parks, who lived in Montgomery during the Civil Rights Movement, and is a community anchor in that tradition.
