The Capitol Hill Library, part of the Metropolitan Library System of Oklahoma County, opened in November 1951. We serve a diverse group of residents of various ages, races and ethnic groups. Our popularity within the community has increased, and is reflected in an increase in use of materials from over 90,000 in 1999, to over 150,000 in 2004.
