Library History:

Completed in November 2008, The Queen Creek library was the first municipal building in Queen Creek designed and constructed with green building features and has been LEED Gold certified by the U.S. Green Building Council. The library was featured in the January 2009 edition of Cities Go Green magazine, a publication that focuses how local governments can become sustainable as quickly and effectively as possible.

The library was designed to provide a gathering place for people of all ages. It includes the Mary Lou Fulton Children's Center, Teen Oasis, general reading areas, public computers, study rooms, conference rooms and Town recreation programming space. The Town received a $1 million grant from Fulton Homes for the construction of design elements in the children’s and teen’s sections of the new library.

The library is a partnership between the Town of Queen Creek and the Maricopa County Library District. The Queen Creek branch library provides materials in all formats as well as adult and juvenile programming.
