In 1954, the state of Kentucky began its Bookmobile Program. In Bullitt County, the Homemaker’s Association asked fiscal court members for funds to establish a library. Using state funds and donations, the Bullitt County Library was established. A bookmobile took books to various areas across the county and the First Baptist Church in Shepherdsville donated a room for daily use.
