This library is not part of the IRC library <br />system, but is still in operation today. The library is operated solely by <br />volunteers and serves as an after school center. <br />Library service for Indian River County was the main objective of the Vero <br />Beach Woman's Club in 1915. There was community support and in 1916 <br />the building opened serving as a library and a club house. As the population <br />and usage increased, the need for a larger space became evident. Several of <br />the community and the Woman's Club formed the Indian River County <br />Library Association. <br />A fund drive ensued and a 7,000 square foot facility was built across frc <br />City Hall. The library opened in 1962. An addition was built in 1974. L <br />funds were awarded in 1983 to build a meeting room and a reading root <br />($25,000.00). The building was then 9,500 square feet. <br />5 113 <br />
