At this time, the City of Cedar Hill has yet to decide what the plans are for the old Zula B. Wylie Library building.

The Museum is open:

• Thursdays from 12 to 8 pm
• Fridays from 10 am to 6 pm
• Saturdays from 10 am to 5 pm

If you have any questions about the Museum, give them a call at 972-293-3806 or visit the Cedar Hill Museum website.

As long as your library card has not expired, it will still work at the new Traphene Hickman Library. The name or logo on your library card will still say "Zula B. Wylie Library" but this does not affect the use of the card. However, please feel free to ask for another library card with the new library's name at any of the service desks! If your library card is expired, please bring your I.D. (Driver's License or State I.D.) with your current address and we will give you another card or you may keep your current, renewed card. We issue free library cards to anyone who lives in Texas!

Yes! You may place interlibrary loan holds by filling out our Interlibrary Loan Request Form.

If you are a Cedar Hill resident, you may also visit the Library to receive a TexShare Card. TexShare Cards allow you to check out items from libraries who are not a part of our Best Southwest Partnership (DeSoto Public Library, Duncanville Public Library, and Lancaster Veterans Memorial Library). This program is made possible by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. Not every library in Texas participates in this program, and libraries that do participate have their own checkout policies, but you are able to search for specific libraries that do accept TexShare Cards. Have your non-expired State I.D. or Driver's License with a current address and your Traphene Hickman Library Card ready to receive your TexShare Card!
