Hewitt Public Library

Hewitt Public Library (HPL) serves the informational, educational, recreational, and business-related interests of the community. The Library is located at 200 Patriot Court in Hewitt.

The Library is proud to offer current high-demand, high-interest materials in a variety of formats for all ages in Hewitt and surrounding communities. In addition to a vast selection of books, the Library also provides internet services, DVDs, electronic format books that can be downloaded from home, as well as audio books. The Library is part of the Texas InterLibrary loan program, and is able to borrow books for its patrons from libraries throughout the United States. Other services include copies and faxing, 3D printing, large format printing, animation station, iPads and computer access.

HPL is recognized nationally as a Family Place Library and is State-accredited. Library Director Waynette Ditto shares that, “America’s libraries continue to transform themselves, keeping pace with the changing economic, social, and technological aspects of society. Libraries’ deepening engagement with their communities takes many forms, from technology to education to social services, and serves many segments of the population. The HPL continues to seek partnerships with the community to better serve our population.”

Hewitt Public Library's mission is to provide an environment where lifelong habits of learning, self-improvement and self-expression are encouraged, and where patrons can meet their educational, informational and recreational needs for all ages in a variety of formats. In carrying out that mission, the Library hosts dozens of programs throughout the year—including story time for preschool children, teens, culinary and other programs to educate the community.

In 2017, the Hewitt Public Library was nationally recognized as a Family Place Library for programming. The American Library Association recognized HPL with the STAR Award in 2017 and 2021. HPL was also recognized by the Texas Municipal Library with the Directors for Excellence Award. In addition, the Library was recently awarded approximately $187,000 to circulate HotSpots and Chromebooks to library patrons and businesses. The future is always bright at the Hewitt Public Library, and its staff would be honored to serve you. Non-residents and residents alike are invited to get a library card.
