📖 About Conran Memorial Library
The Conran Memorial Library serves Hayti, Missouri, the largest city in Pemiscot County and the commercial center of Missouri's Bootheel — a region of flat alluvial bottomland bordering Arkansas and Tennessee near the Mississippi River. Hayti was platted in 1894 when the railroad was extended to that point, and it likely takes its name from an early landowner, Dr. G. Hayes, though some residents believe the name echoes Haiti (historically spelled 'Hayti'). The library at 302 E Main Street is the town's public reading room and provides computers, free Wi-Fi and lending services to the community. It bears the Conran Memorial name, honoring a local family legacy in Pemiscot County. The library is listed in the Missouri State Library's directory as the Pemiscot County public library facility, and cardholders gain access to Missouri statewide digital resources and interlibrary loan services.
