Library Services

The City of Palo has a library located in the Palo Community Center at 2800 Hollenbeck Road.  There are a variety of books for all ages that can be checked out on a good faith system. We also have a desktop computer available for usage and Wi-Fi access.  

If you would like to order books or have access to audible books the City of Palo does contract with the Shellsburg Library which has a large variety of books and resources.  There is a small fee that is charged. Please submit that receipt to the Palo City Hall for reimbursement for all City of Palo Residents.
