Hegewisch
About this Library
Hegewisch Branch was dedicated on December 7, 1991, replacing a small storefront. The community first received library services shortly after World War II in the form of an on-loan fiction collection, which was housed in the basement of a local funeral home. Between 1951 and 1960, library services expanded with bookmobile visits for five hours each week. In 1960, a storefront opened, which served the community until mid-1991.
