The Jacinto City Branch Library was built in 1992. The building, the A.J. "Bert" Holder Library, is a replacement for the original branch, which still stands on Mercury Drive in Jacinto City. The Library is named after former Jacinto City Mayor Bert Holder (1925- 1991), His picture hangs in the library as a gift from the Holder family.
Jacinto City Branch is a cooperative effort between the City of Jacinto City and Harris County. The city built and maintains the facility, while the county furnishes staff and materials. This cooperative agreement has been in force since 1957, when a local resident, Mrs. Dorothy Bowyer, spearheaded the effort to obtain a library for Jacinto City. Mrs. Bowyer also served as the Branch Librarian from 1958 – 1989, when she retired.
Hi, I'm Delaney Daly. I'm thrilled and honored to serve Jacinto City as Branch Manager of the Jacinto City Branch Library. I began my career with Harris County Public Library in 2022 and previously served as Assistant Branch Manager/Youth Services Librarian at the Parker Williams Branch Library. My passions include early literacy, serving youth and their families, providing excellent customer service at the library, establishing community partnerships, and ensuring programming at the library is both engaging and meets the needs of our community members. In 2020, I earned my Master of Library Science degree from the Texas Woman's University School of Library & Information Studies. When I'm not at the library, I enjoy traveling, creative writing, spending time with family and friends, reading way too many books at the same time, and doting on my adorable kitty cat, Abby the Tabby.
