Our History:
Established as a volunteer library by members of The Hudson Junior Woman’s Club in 1980, the predecessor to the Hudson Area Public Library existed without direct tax support.
The Hudson Area Public Library District (HAPLD) was established as a result of a citizen referendum in Hudson, Hudson Township, parts of Money Creek and Unincorporated Normal Township. The vote was held on March 17, 1992, and the question was approved by a nearly 70% vote. On May 12, 1992 the Hudson Area Public Library District became officially established.
