In 1921 Mr. J. Ed Harris, local agent for Mount Vernon-Woodbury Mills, Inc., in Tallassee, originated a plan for a community library. Originally, the library was housed in a small "Stub" of a room on the south end of the library, but in 1922 the library collection was moved into the "sunroom" of the clubhouse, where it has been housed ever since. The library has grown as the result of purchases by the mills as well as from books donated by private individuals, or simply as friends of the library. In March of 1978, Tallassee Mills donated the library to the City of Tallassee and the facility became a public library, no longer owned by the Corporation.
The library has over 26,000 materials in it's collection, 11 public access computers with internet and wireless connectivity and an annual circulation of over 34,000.
There are reports of paranormal activity include smell, full apparitions, and unexplained noises, being watched in the library and it has been featured on the Biography Channel on its "My Ghost Story" show..
