The municipally owned Carl & Mary Welhausen Library is located at 810 Front St. in a historical building, which has been renovated to house a wide-range of resources, including books, videos, historical and genealogical information.
Computers
With eleven internet-ready computers for public use, there is virtually nowhere in the world you can’t visit from your comfortable seat in the Welhausen Library. Finding books and videos within the library is made simple with these computers. Just click on the Cataloging Icon and search by author, title or subject.
Genealogy
One computer is dedicated to genealogy. The online resources and a Family Tree Maker Program allows you to build your own family tree, research passenger logs from early voyages to the Americas and save all of your family information to your own 3 1/2” floppy disk - right there in the library. Listed below are the resources available for our local area.
