Negotiations for a library in the town of Swan River started in 1958 under Mayor George Scalf and organizational committee was formed under Mayor Claude Hinchliffe. The first library in Swan River was opened on a temporary basis in August, 1965 in the Mathews Block with Mrs. Florence Johnston as the Librarian.The Women's Institute of Benito were active in getting a petition up and presenting it to the town council requesting a library in Benito. A library vote, held in 1964 favored the establishment of libraries in both Benito and Swan River. The Benito Branch first opened its doors on December 1, 1965 in the Sas Block with Mrs. Macooh as the Librarian. On January 4, 1966 Mrs. Vivian Hogg became the Librarian with Mrs. Mabel Cooke as the Assistant-Librarian.
