Overview
The Town 'N Country Regional Public Library began operation in 1969 as the West Gate Branch Library in a storefront at the West Gate Shopping Center. The library moved to a new building on Paula Drive in the spring of 1975. The branch was a test site for the library system's first automated circulation system in 1986. West Gate Branch Library became a regional library in 1995. On March 15, 2007, after 32 years of operation, the Paula Drive location closed to make way for construction of the Town 'N Country Commons and the library reopened with a new name in 2008.
