Ottawa Library has been in existence since March 1872 when fifteen members of the Ladies’ Reading Club decided to establish their club “on a boarder basis” and nine of those ladies paid $1.00 in dues. It is an honor to carry on their legacy. Ottawa Library proudly serves a population of approximately 12,500 people in the town of Ottawa, Kansas.
