Mcallen Public Library

McAllen Public Library is a dynamic civic resource that promotes the open exchange of ideas through free access to information and connects a culturally diverse population with the global community. After 60 years in the downtown McAllen location at 601 N. Main St, the Old Main Library closed its doors on November 23, 2011. Ready for a new home, new look, and new direction, McAllen Public Library relocated to its current location at 4001 N. 23rd St. on December 10, 2011. Now an award-winning public library, the new McAllen Public Library is square feet and may very well be the largest single floor public library in the nation. The next largest is the Johnson County Central Resource Library in Overland Park, Kansas, at 90,547 square feet. Find out about job openings by visiting the City of McAllen's Job Openings page @
