The Eufaula Memorial Library is temporarily closed for repairs and mold removal, but we have programs and library services at the Eufaula Community Center. While we are at the Community Center you can check books in and out and use Chromebooks.

The meeting room at the library is now open for programs. Follow us on Facebook for any updates.

We thank the City of Eufaula for repairing our building and allowing us to use the Eufaula Community Center for programs and library services.
