By November 1966 the library moved in to its current location on Eminence Terrace. It was set to have an open house in April of 1967 but a cold winter froze the pipes and flooded the building in March, postponing the open house. The library soon housed some 40,000 volumes, an excellent reference section, a growing genealogical collection, and featured an annual arts and craft exhibit. The library also arranged for extension classes from Kentucky State University to offer the opportunity for citizens of Henry County to earn college credits.

The original building was large enough to meet the needs of the county for a some time, but by 1977 the building required and received both remodeling to the existing features and an addition of a large meeting room with kitchen facilities. In 1987 work began on yet another addition to the library, this time building on another 3,000 square feet of much needed space. This project was completed in 1988 with the help of a construction grant from the state.

The first computer for use in the library was purchased in 1984 - a Commodore 64 with educational software and, later on, a printer. Since then the library has updated and added computers for patrons and staff alike, from converting the library catalog to an electronic database to installing public access terminals with desktop publishing software and broadband Internet access. With the help of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the library also has computers for children loaded with educational games and reference software.
