Gwinnett County is getting a new library and preserving a place of significant local history.

Lawrenceville will be home to the new Hooper-Renwick Public Library. A new, 21st-century library built on the site of the County’s former black high school while incorporating the 1959 addition to the school into the new library. This 25,000-square-foot-themed memorial library will serve the residents of Lawrenceville and all of Gwinnett County preserving and telling the Hooper-Renwick story for generations to come.
