📖 About Glasco City Library
The Glasco City Library serves the farming community of Glasco, Kansas, a small Cloud County town along the Solomon River in the north-central part of the state. Located inside Glasco's City Hall at 206 E. Main Street, it is a part-time library open Monday through Wednesday, run with a personal, hometown touch by librarian Rachel Moore. Despite its size, it offers a surprising range of services: a Pre-K story time for children ages three and up, historic local newspapers preserved on microfilm, book delivery for homebound patrons, and audiobooks for visually impaired readers. The library belongs to the Central Kansas Library System and the statewide network, so a free Kansas library card gives Glasco residents access to interlibrary loan from libraries across Kansas and to the State Library of Kansas's digital collections — including the Sunflower eLibrary of downloadable eBooks and audiobooks. The library also co-sponsors the annual Walter Wolf Historical Lecture and serves as a drop-off point for books donated to veterans' hospitals.
