Following the Norton Sesquicentennial Celebration in 1968, the Norton Library Association was formed to investigate starting a library in Norton. The Association approached the Akron-Summit County Public Library and, on June 9, 1969, the Norton Branch was first opened in a tiny building on the corner of Cleveland-Massillon Road and Oak Street.
An addition for children was added by the Friends of Norton Library in 1972. Services and circulation grew throughout the 1970s and 1980s until it became necessary to construct a larger library building. This state of the art structure was dedicated on May 1, 1988 and opened for the public the next day.
