The Wickson James E Memorial Library in Frankenmuth, MI has a rich history dating back to 1971 when it was established as a department of the city of Frankenmuth, thanks to the efforts of the Frankenmuth Women's Club and the support of the City Council and residents. The library, initially a 5,000 square feet building with 6,500 items, has since expanded to encompass 14,400 square feet and over 45,000 items through various additions and renovations funded by foundations and individuals.
In 2008, the library became the Frankenmuth James E. Wickson District Library, collaborating with the Frankenmuth School District to ensure equitable and secure library funding. With an autonomous District Library Board consisting of eight members, the library continues to serve the community with a range of services and programs for all age groups, including homebound and curbside delivery, a Library of Things, and various book clubs and events.
