Casey Memorial Library

The Ft. Hood post library is smallish but still has more volumes than either Central Texas College or the Killeen Public Library. There are 41 internet computers available, by FAR more than any other local library. They are free of course. The military studies and military history sections are quite comprehensive. All library staff are college graduates. This is unheard of at city libraries where technicians are usually high school grads only. The Casey techs can assist with college class research and paper writing. There is a very active Children's Story Time on Fridays plus a 6-week Summer Reading Program that is well attended (over 200 kids). The library is well located close to a shoppette, two fast food outlets, and the huge Soldier Education Center across the street. more

When I went to the library here on Fort Hood, I was surprised by how small it was. This library has to service 50,000 soldiers plus family members. The library does however provide many great services for the family. They have high speed connection computers for soldiers and civilian family members to use with minimal waiting. They also provide fax and copy services for minimal fees. Overall it is a decent library but small for the area it supports. more

This library is very small compaired to other libraries I have seen at other military posts. But it is nice inside and you can check out dvds and music as well as books. Also you can use the computers if you don't have internet in your own home or live in the barracks so that's a plus. more

This library was alot smaller than I expected, especially for being on such a large military post. They didn't have that many books that interested me or that I was looking for. Overall though it's a nice library. You can rent out DVDs and music and they have computers. The checkout system is easy and painless so overall I think it's an ok library. more
