📖 About Hedrick Public Library

Hedrick Public Library opened in 1923 and has called the Community Center at 109 N Main Street home ever since, growing its collection to more than 8,000 volumes for a town of roughly 1,100 residents. The library circulates over 5,600 items per year — books, magazines, videos, audiobooks, and eBooks — reflecting an unusually high per-capita use for a rural Iowa community. Staff help connect patrons to interlibrary loan through the Iowa library network, meaning nearly any title in the state is within reach. Free library cards are issued to all Keokuk County residents, and children are always welcome in a dedicated section stocked for every reading level.
