The library was housed in the Alston Street facility until July 2004. The library moved to a temporary location at 501 S. Barnes Street. In October of 2007, the library made a final move to its permanent home at 114 W. Church Street. Harold D. Cooley made big contributions to the field of agriculture by serving as chairman of the House Agriculture Committee from 1949 to 1966. The library was dedicated to Harold, North Carolina native. • The Harold D. Cooley Library is important to me because I can get books that are not at an inconvenience to me or my family. 114 W.

6. Red Oak Elementary 5603 Red OakRoad Red Oak, NC 27868 Red Oak Elementary School has been around for a long time, giving education to not only young, elementary age students, but to older students because it used to be a high school. The high school used to be wooden but because of many fires that led to destruction, they completely tore it down and built the Red Oak Elementary school out of bricks and moved the 6th grade to Red Oak Middle, which is directly behind Red Oak Elementary. This is important to me because my mother used to work here, and my brother used to attend this school.
