McAlester Public Library 520 E Smith Ave (Location During Renovation) Former Edmond Doyle Elementary School in North McAlester McAlester, OK74501 United States
The Heavener Public Library was built in 1939 by the WPA program. It was sponsored by the Heavener Women's Club who secured the funds through the First National Bank of Heavener and purchased the majority of the books themselves. A much-needed addition to the library was completed in 2008 through the inexhaustible efforts of the Heavener Friends of the Library groups. This endeavor included a renovation project to the existing library, converting it into a spacious and historic meeting area.
