The Unger Memorial Library is the free public library of Plainview and of Hale County. “Free” means that although the funding for the library is provided by the taxes paid by citizens of Plainview to the City and by county residents to Hale County, the materials and services the library offers are available to all Texas citizens at no direct additional charge. Indeed, anyone entering our doors is entitled to make reasonable use of the materials and services of the public library at no charge.
