The Forest Park Branch Library is the second oldest branch of the Clayton County Libraries. Built on land donated by the City of Forest Park in 1967, it is the only Clayton County Library Branch housed in a two-story structure.

The library offers a wide selection of popular fiction genres and non-fiction reading and research materials. Our rapidly growing Juvenile and Young Adult collections feature popular authors, characters, graphic novels and manga series.

The collection also features a growing collection of Spanish language books for adults and children. Patrons can search the PINES Catalog at three OPAC terminals. Current and back issues of popular magazines can be requested at the Circulation desk. Family friendly programs and movie screenings are presented each month.
