La Crete Library has been in operation since at least 1962. (Committee minutes are on file at the library dating back to January 30, 1962). We were first housed in a small building across the road from La Crete Public School. Mrs. Martha Nafziger spearheaded the birth of the La Crete Community Library.
When the Public School was completed in 1977, La Crete Community Library became a joint library user with FVSD No.52. After 24 years of residency in the school, during the extensive school renovations the library was temporarily moved. From May 2001 to April 2002, the library was squeezed into a small, cramped portable while waiting for construction to be completed. Then in April of 2002, the library was moved back into the newly renovated school, and once again the La Crete Community Library is sharing it's space with the Public School Library.
