Taking its name from the historic Red Hill Creek area, the Red Hill Branch opened in February 1969. The Branch moved to its current location in the plaza in 1983. To meet the demands of the growing community, it was renovated in 2000.

The Branch offers materials and programming for children, teens and adults.

Extended study hours are available at this branch. Please click Extended Study Hours under Branch Features to find out more.
