About the Taft Public Library

At the Taft Library, we are honored to help people find the information they need. Since 1927, we’ve provided services that our community relies on, and in 2025 we moved to a new facility with even more resources for our community. Whether you’re looking for a new read, a place to study, need to use a computer, or want to copy and scan documents, we’re here to help. We are also thrilled to provide numerous online resources.
