Opening its current building on April 5, 2021, the Riverview Public Library celebrates its 5th anniversary today. The new building serves the expanding Riverview area and surrounding communities, which outgrew the original location that served them since 1979. We look forward to the new location being a valuable resource for decades as well.

Are our libraries your happy place? This library fan and proud parent let us know how our libraries have become a positive space for her child:

"Our son who is on the spectrum and is very gifted in reading has found the library to be his happy place. Checking out books is his favorite activity to do as a homeschooler."

These kids enjoyed this years title, 𝘚𝘦𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘶𝘴 𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘸, and worked on their green thumbs while decorating pots for their own basil plants.

While this was a special event, you can enjoy Story Time all year long. Get started at HCPLC.org/StoryTime.

Fifty years ago today the Riverview Branch Library held its dedication ceremony!

Library service to the community began with the Riverview Station, a bookmobile stop at a local grocery store. A group of citizens formed the Riverview Library Association when they saw the need for a library building to better serve the communities of Riverview, South Brandon, Progress Village and Gibsonton. With the Gardinier Corporation’s donation of land previously used as a worm farm, the 8,000 sq. ft. Riverview Branch Library opened on November 18, 1979.

These photographs were digitized from time capsule contents, created by the Riverview Library Association and the Riverview Woman’s Club to commemorate the US bicentennial celebration in 1976.
