- Preserving Our Roots: Working alongside the Haskell County Genealogical Society, the library maintains deep regional records, including local cemetery data from 1884 to help families trace their ancestry.
- Documented Legacy: Our institution's story is carefully preserved right here in Texas archives through local historian Ernestine Cox Herren’s manuscript, History of the Haskell County Library.
