Site work is ongoing at the new library campus and a groundbreaking is slated for early May (stay tuned for more details). The exterior design concepts are available to view here. Now that we have completed phase I of our capital campaign, the committee is embarking on "the next chapter," and continues to seek funding to pay for additional resources, furniture, fixtures and equipment.

Why I Support The Library
"My library's summer reading program helped me become a better reader and student. I wanted those ribbons, and that incentive kept me focused on reading through the summer. Paula and I read to our own girls from the time they were born, and that value has stayed with them as they became curious, engaged citizens. The Boerne Public Library is a portal to the world for so many young people in our community." -- Steve Artale, owner, Hungry Horse Restaurant
