The Algonac-Clay Library was formed in 1901 by the Ladies
Library Association. It was the third library to become affiliated
with the St. Clair County Library System, and it had many homes along
its history including the jewelry store of the Village Clerk, Algonac
High School, and the Town Hall. In 1949, the library was moved
from the Town Hall to the Bostwick Building, where it remained for
many years.
In March 1997, the library moved into its current location,
the former Hemenger Hardware property. The Algonac-Clay Branch
of the St. Clair County Library serves a population of over 13,000
residents through its many programs, a wide range of materials, and
modernized facilities.
