About South Houston Branch Library
Hello, I'm Clara Lopez. I have worked at Harris County Public Library for over 16 years of which 12 have been as Branch Manager at the South Houston Branch.
I oversee that daily operations run smoothly and that everyone who steps foot thru our doors is offered exceptional customer service. My staff and I aim to meet and serve the needs of our surrounding communities all while offering fun and creative programs and services. In my free time, I enjoy baking, hosting family BBQs, and playing board/card games with my family.
If you have a question or comment, please feel free to email or call 832-927-5530
