Hazel Green Public Library

08/21/2026

We need our patrons, so don't forget about us, BUT we want to encourage everyone to join us in congratulating our Benton, WI neighbors. Though it has been a long journey, the Benton Public Library now has a beautiful new building with a community room and museum displays.

Did you know that Hazel Green, Benton, Dickeyville, Cuba City, and Shullsburg often share patrons? Wisconsin has a wonderful history of strong library systems and interlibrary loan networks. That means your tax money can gives you access to all 30 libraries in the Southwest Wisconsin Library System. Grab your library card and join us today!
