Libuse Branch

The Rapides Parish Library Libuse Branch opened on October 24, 2017 just a short 10 months after ground breaking on January 5, 2017. The Libuse Branch replaces the Gunter Branch that has served the growing communities of Libuse, Deville, and Buckeye surrounding areas for more than three decades.

The branch has over 6,500 square feet that includes two study rooms, a large community meeting space that can be partitioned to create smaller meeting spaces. There is an expanded bank of computer stations and several computer stations for children. There are expanded areas for teens, adults and children. Another added feature is a convenient drive through. There are 45 parking spaces with additional parking designed into future expansion projects as well as an additional 2,000 feet of space reserved for future expansion.
