Eaton Public Library began as a grass roots effort by citizens in Eaton which funded a small wooden frame library in 1904. It was replaced by a larger brick structure given to the Town as a memorial to Town founder Governor Benjamin Eaton by his widow, Elizabeth, in 1911. Thanks to residents who voted to increase funding for the libraries in High Plains Library District, the original structure was expanded in 1992 and again in 2015. The service area is identical to Eaton RE-2 school district boundaries.
This historic 12,500 square foot library offers free access to all the resources available to branches in the High Plains Library District. While it is owned and operated by the Town of Eaton, access to services and collections is through a High Plains Library District card which you can obtain at the Eaton Public Library.
