History
The Parker Williams Branch Library first opened its doors to the Southbelt-Ellington community in 1993. Named for Dr. Parker Williams, former Director and President of the San Jacinto – South Campus. We are located within the joint Harris County Court 67 Annex.
Parker Williams has the largest Vietnamese book and DVD collections in the county. In addition to a wide variety of programming and storytimes, we offer free ESL and computer classes. Our three meeting rooms are available free for public bookings and serve the Southbelt area as a community center.
