Public Library
Welcome to your local branch of the Randolph County Public Library system. Founded in 1973 by the Archdale City Council, Archdale Library joined the Randolph County Public Library (RCPL) system in 1992. The headquarters branch of RCPL is in Asheboro and the system has branches in Archdale, Franklinville, Liberty, Ramseur, Randleman and Seagrove. All circulating items are freely shared throughout the system.
As your community library, we urge you to tell your family, friends and co-workers about all that the library has to offer. Anyone living in North Carolina with a photo ID and proof of current address can get a library card. Public school students from Asheboro City Schools, Randolph County Schools and Uwharrie Charter Academy can check out books and access library services by using their school “lunch number.” This is made possible by the “REAL2” collaboration between RCPL and area schools.
