📖 About George Memorial Library

George Memorial Library opened in June 1986 on land donated by The George Foundation, which also funded most of the construction of the three-level, 77,360-square-foot building in Richmond, the Fort Bend County seat. It houses a dedicated Genealogy and Local History Department for researchers studying Fort Bend families and a Braille collection for visually impaired patrons, making it one of the most comprehensive public library facilities in the southwest Houston metro area.
