Attention: The Herington Public Library has a CAC Reader for patron use! A CAC reader is a device that enables a user to access and utilize the information stored on a Common Access Card (CAC). The CAC, a smart card issued by the U.S. Department of Defense, is used for identification and access to secure systems and facilities by military personnel, civilian employees, and contractors. CAC readers connect to computers, allowing users to authenticate their identity, access online military services, and perform tasks like accessing encrypted emails, signing documents digitally, and managing travel vouchers.  For more information, call the library at (785) 258-2011. Hours: Monday - Thursday 11-6 & Friday 9-3 Address: 102 South Broadway The library staff looks forward to assisting all patrons!

Hear from happy patrons

“Our public library is a treasure allowing us to be informed about current events, travel thru time or be different people through reading. What a wonderful blessing our public library is to our community. Thank you Herington library for always being there”

Chrystal Brunner

“I’m thankful for the great selection of books and that you can send a fax or get copies printed or made. Also, for all they do for the kids with story time and crafts.”

Tammy Weber Martin

“My favorite memory is when my Mom said I was “old enough ” to go get my very own library card like my cousins! I was soooo proud… no more checking out books on Mom’s or their cards I was important now! Of course I had to pay my own fines too!”
