History of
the Library |
|
The Fannie
Brown Booth Library has served Shelby County residents at its
present site in Center since 1974. Mr. Edwin Brown Booth, son of
Fannie Brown Booth, a beloved area schoolteacher, spearheaded the
effort to secure funding from the Brown Foundation of Houston for
the current library building. Center’s civic organizations and the
City of Center provided the other funding necessary to provide the
community with a quality facility. The library also provides a
spacious meeting room that is furnished and maintained by the
Redditt family members. The community is indebted to those
organizations and individuals who continue to support the library.
