GREENWOOD, AR (June 18, 2025) – Decades in the making, Sebastian County Library, a branch of the
Scott-Sebastian Regional Library (SSRL), will soon have a new building. Construction of the library is underway with a groundbreaking ceremony planned for Wednesday, June 18, 9 a.m.
The new Sebastian County Library site is located on the corner of Hwy 71 and Center Street. Entry into the library site for the groundbreaking ceremony will be on the north side of the development through Cedar Valley Drive. Parking space will be limited.
The new Sebastian County Library will have:
10,000 sq. ft.
Dedicated adult, teens, and children’s spaces with enclosed areas for teens and children
Community room and study rooms
Outdoor spaces
“The location of the new library site is ideal for a county library. The location of Hwy 71 and Center Street improves accessibility for not only the Greenwood community but also Hackett, Bonanza, Lavaca, Witcherville, Huntington, Mansfield, Hartford, and Scott County communities,“ said SSRL Library Director Rene Myers.
“Community members have been asking for a community room and study rooms for several years. I’m so excited to finally be able to provide those spaces for the community.”
Construction for the new Sebastian County Library is expected to be completed August 2026. For
