It all started in 1964 when a group of club ladies from Marquette Women's Literary Club launched a book drive with a campaign slogan, Read More In 64. There was a need then for a library so the children could carry on their reading in the summer when school was closed and to answer the reading interest among the adults. The MWL club sent representation to the State Library Association in Topeka. A library planning committee consisting of Mrs. LaRue Olson, Mrs. Bertis Wickstrom, Mrs. Gertrude Shields and Mrs. Melvin Hopp began work.
