Cobb County Public Library System - Sibley Library

About

Dedicated on March 5, 1967, the Sibley Branch of the Cobb County Public Library system was constructed under the provisions of the 1965 Cobb County Bond Referendum at a cost of $83,000. Sibley's name honors Miss Florence Weldon Sibley's 32 years of library service. Known as "Miss Tib," she was the first professional librarian in 1936; and then as head of technical processing until her retirement in 1968. As a member of a wealthy, prominent family, most of her salary was donated toward library operations. Today, Sibley library stands majestically at the corner of South Cobb and Baber Rd. still providing wonderful library services to its community which includes the adult continuing education center and the entire Fair Oaks neighborhood.
