The Rapides Parish Library Libuse Branch opened on October 24, 2017, just 10 months after groundbreaking on January 5, 2017. The Libuse Branch replaces the Gunter Branch that has served the growing communities of Libuse, Deville, and Buckeye surrounding areas for over three decades.

The branch has over 6,500 square feet, two study rooms, and a large community meeting space that can be partitioned to create smaller meeting spaces.  There is an expanded bank of computer stations and several computer stations for children. There are expanded areas for teens, adults, and children.  Another added feature is a convenient drive-through. There are 45 parking spaces with additional parking designed for future expansion projects, as well as an additional 2,000 feet of space reserved for future expansion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
