Public library serving the needs of the people of Meridian, Lauderdale County and beyond.

Have you heard of award winning actress Sela Ward or the father of country music Jimmie Rodgers? And let's not forget Hartley Peavey, the founder of Peavey Electronics. All of these and many more famous individuals have called Meridian and Lauderdale County "home." In 1864, General Sherman and his troops destroyed the railroad tracks and burned tons of freight, leaving the General to declare in a memo to Union Headquarters, "Meridian no longer exists!" Well, he was wrong. Take a peek inside and see what the Meridian-Lauderdale County Public Library has to offer.

🎃🎨 Spooky scenes and street smarts at the library! 👻🚗

Thursday's programs brought a little Halloween spirit to both age groups!

Our young artists put their creativity to work, using black paper and craft materials to create their own spooky nighttime landscapes!

🚦 6th–12th Grade | Road Ready: Fright Night
Our teens took on a different kind of fright as they explored unexpected road hazards, spooky driving scenarios, and the importance of making safe decisions behind the wheel.

From getting crafty to getting road ready, it was another fun afternoon of creating, learning, and spending time together at the library! 🍂📚
