📖 About White City Public Library
White City, Kansas grew up along the Missouri-Kansas-Texas (Katy) Railroad corridor in the 1870s as settlers fanned across the tallgrass prairie of Morris County. The White City Public Library has long served as the town's information lifeline, providing free access to books, digital resources, and educational tools in a community of under 700 people. The library is a member of the North Central Kansas Libraries System (NCKLS), a cooperative of 40 legally established public libraries spanning twelve counties including Morris. Through NCKLS, patrons access the Sunflower eLibrary — a statewide consortium on the OverDrive platform that lets cardholders borrow eBooks, digital audiobooks, and eMagazines from any connected device using the Libby app. The library also provides LearningExpress for GED/HiSET preparation, college test prep, and job-skills courses available in both English and Spanish.
