The property at 1326 W. Cherry Lane was chosen because it is exactly in the middle of the Library District. The property wasn’t for sale, but the owner, Anna Koskella was willing to sell because it would become the Library. There was a farm house, barn and pasture on the property when it was purchased. Anna donated an antique plow that now sits on the east side of the building. In 2004, the Meridian Library District purchased a bookmobile. The first official outing was the Annual Christmas parade. Formal services began in January of 2005.
